Austin police are encouraging all drivers to slow down and settle down in attempts to reduce the number of aggressive drivers in the area. After a recent traffic fatality, Austin police are teaming up several surrounding police forces to conduct a sting on aggressive driving in the hopes to reduce the number of traffic fatalities.
The city just recorded its 21st death of 2013 from a motor vehicle accident after a driver lost control and collided with two motorcycles.
