THE BRIGHT SIDE

The Walworth County Sheriff’s Office recently took part in the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) Click It OR Ticket (CIOT) mobilization, held from May 18 through May 31, 2026.
As a requirement of the grant program, their agency is reporting the following: Deputies devoted 400 hours to traffic safety efforts. Their work resulted in 372 traffic contacts, 204 citations, and 171 written warnings. Deputies also made seven criminal drug arrests, three felony arrests, six misdemeanor arrests, four warrant arrests, responded to three canine requests, conducted eight commercial motor vehicle inspections, and were involved in two police pursuits.

These efforts reflect the Walworth County Sheriff’s Office’s ongoing commitment to promoting safer roadways and a safer community for everyone who lives in or travels through Walworth County. By increasing visibility and encouraging responsible driving, the initiative aims to reduce serious crashes and injuries while supporting a safer environment for all. The Sheriff’s Office will also be participating in the upcoming NHTSA Fall Drive Sober Or Get Pulled Over (DSOGPO) mobilization, scheduled for August 14 through September 7, 2026.
