A new enforcement campaign by the Michigan State Police will focus on aggressive drivers along I-94 between Jackson and Taylor.

The campaign is called TACT – or Ticketing Aggressive Cars and Trucks.

It's an effort by police to encourage safe driving around trucks.

According to a press release, crashes involving commercial vehicles have increased 15% in the past five years.

Officers will be on the lookout for violations by both passenger vehicles and commercial vehicles.

That includes improper lane use, careless and reckless driving, speeding, and following too closely.

The campaign starts Monday and runs on weekdays through the first two weeks of June.
