Unidentified Speaker (Speaker) said Fresno County "aquí, en el condado de Fresno, lideramos el estado en muertes por choques de tráfico," calling attention to the county’s high number of traffic fatalities and urging listeners to take action to prevent further deaths.
The speaker named common causes behind those fatalities, saying, "Muchas de esas muertes por exceso de velocidad, conducir distraído o bajo la influencia del alcohol." They then issued a direct appeal: "Usted tiene el poder de ayudar a salvar vidas, no vaya rápido mientras maneja, no se distraiga mientras maneja, no tome y maneje porque te puedes morir." The remarks were delivered in Spanish and focused on individual driving behaviors as immediate, preventable risks.
The message did not include numeric counts, dates, or specific policy proposals; the claim that Fresno County "leads the state" in traffic crash deaths was stated without citation or supporting figures in the transcript. No formal action, ordinance, funding request, or next procedural step was recorded in the provided transcript segments. The speaker framed the remarks as a public-safety appeal to drivers and community members, emphasizing behavior changes rather than legislative or programmatic remedies.
At this time, the transcript provides no named official, agency spokesperson, or follow-up plan attached to the remark. Additional data or citations would be needed to verify the county-ranking claim and to describe any related county enforcement or prevention efforts.
