Traffic Safety Thursday: Notifying the Public / Traffic Laws Across State Lines

Our conversation for Traffic Safety Thursday with Lt. Warren Gosnell from Frederick County Sheriff's Office covered several different topics. He recently attended a conference in Tennessee where he earned a certification through the University of Tennessee's Master Public Information Officer course. He explained what types of things they covered during the class and gave some insight into the protocols that go into disseminating information to the public. We talked about how he took on the role of Public Information Officer (in addition to his traffic duties) and some of the challenges he's faced. We also discussed a few situations he faced on his trip. He encouraged listeners to be educated on laws if you're traveling to other states and gave advice as to where to find such information.
