You&#8217;ll see us, we&#8217;ll see you, make sure you behave.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Local police will be supported by the Geelong Highway Patrol, with officers targeting high-risk behaviour on busy roads.<\/p>\n<p>Driver distraction, particularly mobile phone use, remains a major concern.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The moment you take your eyes off the road and you start looking at your phone because you&#8217;ve got a text message, means you&#8217;re driving a one-tonne vehicle in a direction that you&#8217;re not sure of anymore because you&#8217;re not looking out the windscreen,&#8221; Snr Sgt Bickley said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Speed and fatigue are constants over the summer period; people rushing to get to places, tired because they got up early, and they haven&#8217;t had a lot of sleep.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Police are also concerned about complacency among local drivers, with familiarity on roads often contributing to mistakes.<\/p>\n<p>Extra patrols will be deployed across the region, including along tourist routes, as police work to prevent serious injuries and fatalities.<\/p>\n<p>Planning for New Year&#8217;s celebrations has also been a top priority, with extra police allocated to Torquay, Anglesea and Lorne.<\/p>\n<p>Snr Sgt Bickley said last year&#8217;s celebrations passed with minimal incidents and police were hoping for a repeat.<\/p>\n<p>He also urged parents to speak with their children about responsible behaviour, particularly around alcohol.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Know where your kids are. I have had to make calls in the past to parents to explain their child has been assaulted and is being taken to hospital, and it is not a call I enjoy having to make,&#8221; Snr Sgt Bickley said.<\/p>\n<p>He encouraged people to consider their actions before getting behind the wheel.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I hope and wish everybody on the Surf Coast to have a safe Christmas and a happy new year,&#8221; Snr Sgt Bickley said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But, remember that if you do stretch it, if you do drink heavily the night before going to a celebration and then drive the next day, remember that you could still be over the legal limit and there&#8217;s a good chance that you may get caught.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>POLICE across the Surf Coast will step up efforts to reduce road trauma over summer, as the region braces for an influx of visitors during the holiday period.
