Southwest Minnesota TZD
A regional approach to reducing traffic deaths and injuries.
Innovative enforcement reaps rewards for Southwest Minnesota's TZD program
It's not every day you see county sheriff deputies patrolling a highway outside their jurisdiction. Add the Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) and the Minnesota State Patrol into the mix and you have an even rarer partnership. But it's exactly what happened when a Southwest Minnesota Toward Zero Deaths (TZD) enforcement effort brought these groups together in an innovative approach to improving highway safety.
