During which time is increased traffic enforcement typically seen by the Nevada Highway Patrol?

Increased traffic enforcement is typically seen during major holidays due to the higher volume of vehicular traffic and a corresponding rise in traffic-related incidents. Holidays often lead to more people traveling, attending parties, and engaging in recreational activities, which can lead to an increase in not only the number of vehicles on the road but also a higher likelihood of impaired driving and reckless behavior.

The focus during these times shifts to ensuring public safety by monitoring for speeding, DUI, and other dangerous driving practices, ultimately to prevent accidents and protect road users. This proactive approach helps to mitigate the risks associated with the increased activities that occur during holidays and contributes to overall road safety during these busy periods.

In contrast, while school vacation periods, rush hours, and weekends do see law enforcement activity, they typically do not reach the same level of intensity and focused enforcement seen during major holidays.
