The Flagler County Sheriff’s Office (FCSO) today announced the release of a traffic safety public service announcement with multi-platinum, award-winning country music performer Toby Keith. The PSA was created with support and funding through a cooperative agreement with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the National Sheriff’s Association (NSA).

Please preview the PSA here and starting this week, the PSA will be broadcasted across all of the FCSO’s social media channels and on our website. Additionally, the NSA will be distributing the PSA to 1900 TV outlets and radio stations across the country.

“We are excited to partner with the NSA, the NHTSA, and Toby Keith to promote safe driving not just locally but around the country,” Sheriff Staly said. “Every day the men and women of FCSO are out on our roadways working to keep our roadways safe and drivers are obeying traffic laws. I ask our residents to do their part and Drive Smart!”
