Police are aiming to reduce road trauma over the Labour Day long weekend. POLICE say they are determined to turn around a "shocking" start to the year on the roads with a statewide enforcement effort during the long weekend. Operation Arid will run from Friday until Monday and police will target high-risk driving behaviour and non-compliance in an effort to reduce road trauma. Victoria recorded 68 lives lost in the first 66 days of the year – 18 more than at the same time last year and a 45 per cent increase on the five-year average.
