As many as 88 persons may be
killed on Texas streets and highways
during the Christmas and New
Year’s holiday periods, according to
Col. Joe E. Milner, director of the
Department of Public Safety.
“The number of traffic deaths
we are estimating to fewer than the
number recorded during Christmas
and New Year’s last year, but we
are worried that Texas may end the
year with an overall increase in
fatalities compared with 1987,”
Milner said.
The number of traffic deaths in
Texas has been on the decline since
1984, according to DPS records. In
1987, 3,261 persons were killed
across the state, a nine percent
decrease from 1986. This year,
however, the traffic deaths have
been edging upward compared with
1987.
In an effort to minimize the
increase in traffic fatalities, the DPS
this year, as in years past, will
conduct its Operation Holiday
program. All available troopers will
be patrolling the state’s highways
during peak holiday traffic times.
And the Department will make
periodic reports to the public on the
number of traffic deaths occuring
during the holidays.

tragedy,” Milner said. “We intend
to do everything we can to ensure
that our fellow Texans and out-of-
state holiday visitors have as safe a
holiday as possible this year.”
Milner said troopers would
particularly be on the lookout for
speeding and intoxicated drivers.
Troopers also will be keeping an eye
out for motorists not wearing their
safety belts.
“Each holiday period, there are
many traffic deaths that probably
would not have occurred if the
victims had been wearing their
safety belts,” Milner said.
To remind motorists of the
dangers of drunken driving, Milner
said, all DPS black and white patrol
cars are sporting red ribbons as part
of the Mothers Against Drunk
Driving Project Red Ribbon
campaign.
Survivors include his wife, Myrtle
Lois Moore of Comanche; two sons,
Frank Moore, Jr., and Derrell Dean
