9/4/26 - The Lane County Sheriff’s Office Reminds Everyone Child Safety Seats Save Lives! Lane County Sheriff’s Office continues to use state-funded grant overtime to enforce seatbelt laws, including child safety restraint requirements. Although enforcement helps, the most important step in preventing tragedy is ensuring a child safety seat is properly installed and used every time. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), 46% of child car seats are installed incorrectly. The link below provides an excellent visual guide to Oregon’s Child Restraint Laws: https://www.oregon.gov/odot/Safety/Documents/ODOT_Car_Seat_Flyer_2021-English.pdf -Statistics- Car seats reduce the risk of fatal injury by 71% for infants and 54% for toddlers in passenger cars. Since 1975, child restraints have saved over 11,600 children under age 5. Nearly half of caregivers believe they installed seats correctly—but 46% are installed wrong. -Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT): Child Safety Seat Requirements- Children must use a child safety seat until 40 lbs or until they reach the upper weight limit of the seat. Infants must ride rear-facing until age two, unless they turned one before May 26, 2017. After outgrowing a forward‑facing harness, children must use a booster seat until 4'9" or age 8 and the adult belt fits properly. -Rear Seating- Oregon law does not prohibit children from riding in the front seat. However, rear‑facing seats may never be used in front of an active airbag. National best practices recommend children ride in the back seat through age 12. -Booster Seat Fit Test- To determine whether a child can safely transition from a booster to a seatbelt, answer YES to all: Can the child sit back with knees bending naturally at the seat edge? Do their feet rest flat on the floor? Does the shoulder belt lay flat across the collarbone and chest (not the neck)? Does the lap belt sit low across the thighs (not the stomach)? Can the child maintain this position comfortably for the entire trip? The Lane County Sheriff’s Office wants everyone to have a safe Holiday Weekend. So, please buckle-up and ensure every child is secured safely before your drive.

8/28/2026 - Deputies working DUI grant overtime through 9/7/26 The Lane County Sheriff’s Office does not have a dedicated traffic team or deputy assigned to DUI enforcement due to lack of funding. However, our deputies are committed to the safety of our community, and that includes our roadways. Through September 7th, LCSO deputies will be working extra shifts as available on state funded grant overtime to help keep intoxicated drivers off our roads. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reported 11,904 total deaths in 2024 from alcohol-impaired traffic crashes. That is about 32 people every day, or one death approximately every 44 minutes. Over 800,000 Americans were arrested for DUI in 2024, making up roughly 11% of arrests for that year. The Lane County Sheriff’s Office cares about our community's safety. Do not become part of the statistics. Remember: 🚙Plan your safe ride home ahead of time 🍺If you drink or use drugs, do not drive for any reason 🔑If you know someone has been drinking or using drugs, don't let them drive 💃If you host a party with alcohol, make sure all guests leave with a sober driver 👍And please, always wear your seatbelt! Please drive safe and help everyone start off the school year safely!

8/27/26 - Sheriff’s Office SAR helps Rescue person stuck on Mt. Yoran On August 26th a little after 11:00am Lane County Sheriff’s Search & Rescue (SAR) learned of a person stuck on Mt. Yoran. The individual was alone but uninjured. The person advised they became trapped on a ledge while descending and provided GPS coordinates of their location. Lane County Sheriff’s Search & Rescue volunteers with Eugene Mountain Rescue responded to assist. Just before 10:00pm SAR volunteers confirmed the individual was off the mountain and safely back at their vehicle. Unfortunately, these types of situations occur frequently. Rescues and recoveries are only possible because of the many volunteers the Sheriff’s Office employs. These volunteers train rigorously for all circumstances and often must respond at a moment's notice. The Lane County Sheriff’s Office is so thankful for all the men and women who donate their time to make Lane County a safer place. To learn more about our Search & Rescue program or to donate to their work visit our website at: www.lanecountyor.gov/government/county_departments/sheriff_s_office/l_c_s_o_s_o_search_and_rescue The Lane County Sheriff’s Office wants everyone to recreate safely, so please remember: ⛰️Always tell someone where you are going and when you plan to return. 🌨️Know conditions before you leave - rain in the valley can mean ice up high! ⛺Be prepared to stay out overnight - even if you don't plan to get out of your car. 🗺️Bring maps for offline navigation - cell service can be spotty! 🌊If you go on the water, ALWAYS wear a life jacket! 🛑If you become lost, STAY PUT! Find a way to signal or make your location visible. Always carry a whistle and flashlight in the outdoors – it just might save your life.Photos from Lane County Sheriff's Office's post

They may also offer to take bail money so family members in our jail may be released. Scammers then ask for payment or personal information, often threatening arrest. They usually offer to take payment digitally, through cryptocurrency, phone apps, or at a kiosk. In some instances, the scammers appear to call from official phone numbers or provide fraudulent callback numbers with official-sounding voicemail inboxes. They often already have some personal information based on the phone number they called.
