North Las Vegas police are on the hunt for distracted drivers.

On April 11, 16 & 18, North Las Vegas residents can expect to see increased law enforcement presence.
 
The North Las Vegas Police Department has joined forces with law enforcement agencies statewide to crack down on distracted driving, and has an important message for the public: Put the cell phone down. 
 
Increasing law enforcement presence during this week supports the overall state goal of reaching Zero Fatalities.
 
North Las Vegas residents can help us reach that goal by focusing their attention on the roadway when they are behind the wheel.   
 
Driver inattention is the cause of many accidents on Nevada roadways.
