Massachusetts Targets Wrong-Way Drivers
from Providence News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Massachusetts is pouring $50–70 million into road safety upgrades across 400+ locations to combat deadly wrong-way drivers—deploying smarter signs, clearer lanes, and AI sensors that alert cops in real time. This urgent push follows nearly 700 wrong-way incidents in two years, including the tragic death of Trooper Kevin Trainor. The issue isn’t isolated: Rhode Island, despite earlier tech deployments, still lost Jaylin Rainford to a wrong-way crash, prompting her mother to question if current measures are sufficient. While Rhode Island has no new projects planned, both states remain committed to preventing future tragedies and saving lives. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
