“No Empty Chair” Safety Campaign is This Week in Rye

The “No Empty Chair” safety campaign is this week in Rye. Rye PD will join other departments across the NY State to “help keep our teens and everyone else safe on the road. Prom and graduation season should be full of memories—not empty chairs.”
Each day this week, Rye PD will focus on a different violation—from texting and speeding to underage drinking. PD will be out proactively looking for violators with zero tolerance.
