The new year is off to a safe start on Fond du lac County roads in terms of traffic fatalities. Fond du lac County Sheriff’s captain Ryan Waldschmidt told the Traffic Safety Commission last week that through the first couple of months of 2017 there have been zero traffic fatalities in Fond du lac County. Waldschmidt credits traffic enforcement grants that allow for stepped up patrol. “We’ve got eight agencies participating in those full time and they happen multiple times a week where we have officers and deputies throughout Fond du Lac county just enforcing traffic laws,” Waldschmidt told WFDL news. There were ten traffic fatalities on Fond du Lac County roads last year.
