laws that protect wildlife and its
habitat."

Traffic; fatalities decrease in No'tt Dakota
There were 104 traffic fatalities
on North Dakota roadways in 2008,
a decrease of seven traffic fatalities
from 2007. The 104 traffic fatalities
occurred in 97 crashes.
Alcohol use and a lack of seat
belts continue to be contributing
factors in crashes. This year, alcohol
was a contributing factor in 50 of
the 104 deaths (48 percent), com-
pared to last year"s rate of 57 per-
cent. There were nine fewer lives
lost as a result of alcohol use this
year.
Nearly three out of four people
(59 of 81 fatalities) who were killed
in traffic crashes were not wearing a
seat belt, even though the vehicles
were equipped with them. The 23
deaths not included in this number
were pedestrian, motorcycle, or
bicycle crashes. North Dakota has
"Although the number of fatality victims
has decreased from the previous year,
alcohol and lack of seat belt use con-
tributes to many of the tragedies that occur
on North Dakota roadways."
Lieutenant Mike Gerhart
had an increase in the number of
motorcycle traffic fatalities. In
2006, there were four; in 2007,
there were 8 motorcycle fatalities;
and this past year there were 13.
There were 38 single vehicle
rollover crashes with 40 fatalities.
Of the 40 fatalities,36 of them were
not wearing their seat belt; 32 were
ejected.
Lieutenint Mike Gerhart of the
North Dakota Highway Patrol stat-
ed, "Although the number of fatali-
ty victims has decreased from the
previous year, alcohol and tack of
seat belt use contributes to many of
the tragedies that occur on North
Dakota roadways. The goal of the
..North Dakota Highway Patrol is to
ensure that the traveling public
makes it to their destination safely.
Remember to always wear a seat-
belt, and never drink and drive."
Karin Mongeon, Manager of the
Traffic Safety Office, North Dakota
Department of Transportation stat-
ed, "The North Dakota Department
of Transportation also has a goal to
assure the safety of the traveling
public. Drunk driving crashes can be
prevented through personal account-
ability -through each person's con-
scious decision to never drink and
drive. Also, the department encour-
ages the public to wear a seat belt
every trip, every time. Seat belts
save lives and decrease the severity
of crash-related injuries Y
The North Dakota Highway
Patrol and North Dakota

together on a number of traffic safe-

All cities, schools and counties in North Dakota are required to pu.blish the minutes
of their meetings in the newspaper. It is fundm'nental to informing citizens about what
their elected officials are doing, It also helps minimize rumors and misconceptions about
local public entities. In short, it's good govermnent. Yet, there are continuing legislative
threats to diminish or eliminate this important information. What can you do?
Tell your legislators you support the publication of government public notices.
