8/6/26 - LCSO Deputies Enforce Traffic Safety Using Grant Funding Lane County continues to make an impact and try to improve roadway safety through public education and enforcement. LCSO Deputies are continuing to utilize grant funding to show an increased presence on county roads. The reality is, high‑risk driving behaviors, especially speeding, are still increasing. Lane County has consistently ranked among the top three highest counties in Oregon for fatal crashes. According to the Oregon Department of Transportation, Lane County recorded 56 traffic deaths in 2022. 89% of these crashes involved impairment and or speed. Lane County recorded 41 deaths in 2023 and 49 deaths in 2024. LCSO does not have a full-time dedicated traffic enforcement unit. Most offenders get stopped simply because the deputy happened to be in the right place at the right time and was in between priority calls-for -service. This only raises more concerns about how often these dangerous driving behaviors go undetected. The Lane County Sheriff’s Office is asking for every driver’s assistance to help keep our roads safe. Please plan ahead. Give yourself extra travel time. Practice patience. Remember we all share the roadway with drivers of all ages and varying levels of experience. Together, we can reduce speeds and make Lane County’s roads safer for everyone. Featured News by Lane County Sheriff
