On July 30, 2026, members of the Medicine Hat Police Service Traffic Unit and the Alberta Sheriffs Highway Patrol will conduct joint traffic safety check stops throughout the City of Medicine Hat.

The initiative is intended to enhance road safety, promote driver awareness of and adherence to traffic laws, and educate motorists on safe driving practices. Officers will be checking for valid licensing, vehicle documentation, impaired driving regulations, seatbelt use, and other traffic safety requirements.

Motorists are reminded to ensure they have all required documentation, confirm their vehicles are in safe operating condition, and always drive responsibly.

Through ongoing enforcement and public education, the MHPS and Alberta Sheriffs Highway Patrol remain committed to keeping roads safe for everyone.
