Maryland State Police Salisbury Barrack

This Memorial Day Weekend, Maryland State Police will be busy patrolling our roadways to help keep traffic moving safely, but safety doesn’t just begin and end with law enforcement. It’s a shared responsibility with every motorist, year-round.

We urge Marylanders, and those who travel through our state, to prioritize safety and to always plan ahead. Avoid dangerous situations like speeding or aggressive driving.

Choose to drive sober or choose a sober driver. Use a rideshare service. It’s that easy.

You will see state troopers working visible enforcement up and down the U.S. 50 corridor as motorists cross the bridge heading to and from the Eastern Shore, as well as statewide. Let’s work together to ensure a safe weekend for all.
