Commission reviews 2025 fatal‑crash comparisons and statewide safety programs
Summary
At the Calumet County Traffic Safety Commission meeting, Todd Rasmussen presented 2025 fatal‑crash comparisons using a three‑year average for Wisconsin and Calumet County and summarized statewide programs and legislative items including RCUT intersections, 'Place of Last Drink,' ALPR, and electronic IDs.
The Calumet County Traffic Safety Commission heard a BOTS report during its meeting. Todd Rasmussen provided 2025 fatal‑crash numbers compared to a three‑year state average for Wisconsin and Calumet County and outlined several statewide programs and legislative items under consideration.
Rasmussen highlighted community maps and Restricted Crossing U‑Turn (RCUT) intersections as items of interest for local safety work and noted the new statewide 'Place of Last Drink' program and updated Wisconsin license plates. He also listed legislative updates and policy topics receiving attention: automated license plate readers (ALPR), occupational licensing provisions, electronic ID cards, proposals on speed limiters, move‑over/slow‑down rules for disabled vehicles, and rules for ATV/UTV registration from out of state. The minutes do not record numerical crash counts in the text beyond the reference to a 2025 comparison and a three‑year average.
Commission members did not record further action on the BOTS report at this meeting; the item served as an informational briefing for future planning and potential local follow‑up.
