Sheriff issues "stop of the week" warning on aggressive driving after traffic stop
Sheriff Mark Danels used his regular "stop of the week" segment to caution Cochise County drivers about aggressive driving behaviors that can lead to crashes, including speeding and unsafe lane usage.

Describing a recent traffic stop, Danels said an observed vehicle passed at high speed and repeatedly crossed lane lines and shoulders, prompting the stop. "When you can't stay in the lane, that's not discretionary," he said, urging motorists to pay attention to the road and warning that overcorrection after drifting out of a lane can cause rollovers and other crashes.

Danels encouraged drivers to watch for distracted drivers and to be patient on county roads as community events and road closures increase traffic this season. He framed aggressive driving as often emotional or related to impairment and said deputies will stop unsafe drivers when observed.

No new enforcement program or change to traffic policy was announced on the broadcast; Danels' remarks were presented as public‑safety advice and a description of a routine enforcement stop.
