Enhancing Safety on Minnesota’s Roads
The South Lake Minnetonka Police Department and the Highway 7 Safety Coalition have achieved a significant milestone, reaching zero traffic fatalities along the Highway 7 Corridor in 2025. These agencies implemented a holistic strategy that combined community education with advanced technology to address dangerous driving behaviours. These efforts have seen fatal crashes reduced to zero from five fatalities in 2024, and serious-injury crashes drop by 50% compared to previous yearly averages.
This collaboration is successfully encouraging drivers to make better decisions behind the wheel. We are inspired by these results and remain dedicated to delivering intelligent solutions that protect communities and ensure everyone returns home safely.
