With the Fourth of July weekend here, the Erie County Sheriff’s Office is sounding the alarm: boating isn’t like driving a car—no brakes, no second chances. They’re urging everyone to plan ahead, pack safety gear (including life jackets, charged phones, and working flares), and know the waters they’re on. Speed is a deadly issue, especially near shorelines—stick to the 5 mph limit within 100 feet of docks or diving flags. Plus, with Operation Dry Water underway, expect extra patrols targeting impaired boaters. In New York, all motorized boat operators must complete a safe boating course. Stay safe, have fun, and get home.
