MONTGOMERY — As families across Alabama prepare for holiday travel, celebrations and ringing in the New Year, the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency is preparing to kick off its annual “12 Days of Safety” campaign — a festive, interactive public-safety initiative designed to keep everyone safe from the first day of winter through New Year’s Day.
The campaign begins Sunday and runs through Jan. 1, highlighting one safety theme each day. Through daily social media posts, photos, videos and reminders, ALEA will combine holiday cheer with life-saving messages aimed at reducing crashes, injuries and fatalities during one of the busiest travel periods of the year.
“This time of year should be about making memories, not responding to tragedies that could have been prevented,” said ALEA Secretary of Law Enforcement Hal Taylor. “Our 12 Days of Safety campaign is meant to be engaging and lighthearted, but the message is serious — simple, smart decisions save lives. We want everyone to arrive safely and start the new year surrounded by the people they love.”…
