Many people may not know that fentanyl can be found in what look to be common pills! This Fentanyl Awareness Day, keep yourself and others safer by familiarizing yourself with the One Pill Can Kill campaign from the DEA!
Did you know?
• Criminal drug networks are mass-producing fake pills and falsely marketing them as legitimate prescription pills to deceive the American public.
• Fake pills are easy to purchase, widely available, often contain fentanyl or methamphetamine, and can be deadly.
• Fake prescription pills are easily accessible and often sold on social media and e-commerce platforms, making them available to anyone with a smartphone, including minors.
• Many fake pills are made to look like prescription drugs such as oxycodone (Oxycontin®, Percocet®), hydrocodone (Vicodin®), and alprazolam (Xanax®); or stimulants like amphetamines (Adderall®).

The month of May marks the beginning of National Police Week dedicated to honoring our country’s law enforcement community. In 2022, 246 officers died in the line of duty . The leading causes of death were gunfire, automobile accidents, and medical conditions. These causes have remained consistent for numerous years. Equipment and training continue to evolve in an effort to combat the ever increasing danger of firearms. Officers are encouraged through various programs to engage in wellness and medical examinations to catch issues such as heart disease and high blood pressure in the nascent stages. Motor vehicle statutes such as the “Move Over Law,” require drivers to make every effort to avoid and make space for an emergency vehicle working alongside of the road. The goal of these initiatives is below 100 line of duty deaths in a year (www.below100.org/). The ultimate dream of course, would be zero… Unfortunately, during the last two weeks, four (4) law enforcement officers have died in the line of duty: two from gunfire, one from an automobile accident, and one from a medical condition. Despite these ever present risks, over 800,000 men and women choose to serve the public as Police Officers. Please take some time in the coming week to acknowledge one of these fine individuals with a wave, handshake, prayer, or phone call. ... See MoreSee Less

Learn the Telltale Signs of a Utility Scam
PSE&G urges customers to think twice if someone threatens to immediately shut off their power
(NEWARK, N.J. – May 3, 2023) PSE&G urges customers to be alert to utility scams – particularly scams demanding immediate bill payment. PSE&G continues to educate customers on how they can guard against becoming victims of impostor utility scams.
“Protecting our customers is a top priority. It is critically important we continue to raise awareness and educate customers about how to spot and stop potential scams,” said Jane Bergen, director of billing, Customer Care for PSE&G. “Scammers continue to adapt and develop increasingly sophisticated tactics to take advantage of our customers.”
Scammers continue to use calls, texts, emails and in-person tactics to contact utility customers often asking for immediate payment to avoid service disconnection. PSE&G would not send just one notification to a customer within an hour of a service disconnection. The company will also never ask customers to make payments with a prepaid debit card, gift card, any form of cryptocurrency or third-party digital payment via fund transfer applications. PSE&G offers a variety of payment options and would never require one specific type of payment.
Recent phone scams reported to PSE&G include demands for payment for past-due bills or priority meter installations. Often scammers will threaten to disconnect electric service if payment is not made immediately.
If a customer has doubts about the legitimacy of a call or an email — especially one in which payment is requested — call the company directly at 1-800-436-PSEG (7734).
Signs of potential scam activity:
• Threat to disconnect: Scammers may aggressively tell the customer their utility bill is past due and service will be disconnected if a payment is not made — usually within an hour.
• Request for immediate payment: Scammers may instruct the customer to purchase a prepaid card, a gift card or even Bitcoin, and then to call them back to make a phone payment. Scammers may request that the customer use a payment app to make an online payment, or even give instructions for an in-person meeting. Many times after the customer makes the first payment, the scammer will call back to ask for the payment to be resubmitted due to an error with the amount. The scammer refers to a new amount and claims that the original payment will be refunded.
• In person-demands: Scammers may arrive at a home or business, flash a fake ID and/or claim to be a utility collection representative. The impostors may wear “uniforms” or affix false company signs to their vehicles. The scammers generally ask for personal information or offer discounts, which a real PSE&G representative would not do.
• Request for card information: If a customer calls back with requested information, the scammer asks the customer for the prepaid card’s number or gift-card PIN, which grants the scammer instant access to the card’s funds, and the victim’s money is gone.
Protect yourself against scams:
• Be alert to the telltale sign of a scam: someone asking by telephone or email for payment in pre-paid debit cards or a MoneyGram transfer, or to send money to an out-of-state address.
• Never arrange payment or divulge account or personal information, including Social Security numbers or debit or credit card information, over the telephone unless you are certain you are speaking to a PSE&G representative.
• Customers should also know what PSE&G will and won’t discuss over the phone. A genuine PSE&G representative will ask to speak to the “Customer of Record.” If that person is available, the representative will explain why they are calling and provide the account name, address and current balance. If the person on the phone does not provide the correct information, it is likely the customer is not speaking with a PSE&G representative.
• If the “Customer of Record” is not available, the PSE&G representative will not discuss the account at all and ask that a message be left for the “Customer of Record” to call 1-800-436-PSEG (7734).
• If a customer has doubts about the legitimacy of a call or an email — especially one in which payment is requested — call the company directly at 1-800-436-PSEG (7734).

Pop quiz: How far do you have to move over when you pass a cyclist? Slow down and move over at least four feet. Otherwise, reduce speed to 25 mph and be prepared to stop. #SafePassingLaw #NationalBikeSafetyMonth #SafeRoadsNJ ... See MoreSee Less

If only the groups would cycle single file!
Another good question would be: “How far WOULD IT BE NICE for you to move over and SLOW DOWN when passing someone walking a 🐕?!!!!!” Pathetic enough the speed people are going on a side street in town, but they don’t even move over a little. God forbid my dog suddenly spots a 🦌 and pulls me into the path of a speeding car. 🙄😤

May is National Bicycle Safety Month
Every day, countless individuals of all ages bicycle along America’s sidewalks and streets. This form of transportation is good for the environment, good for physical health, and it’s cheaper than owning and operating a vehicle.
This May, NHTSA wants our community to protect its bicyclists by being responsible and conscientious motorists. We also want our bicyclists to practice smart riding habits by riding safely and always wearing a helmet.
It’s important to remember that, while driving and riding bikes are privileges, arriving safely to your destination is a right:
• In 2020, there were 938 bicyclists killed - a 9% increase from 2019 - and an estimated 38,886 injured in traffic crashes in the United States.

It’s true. Any task that takes your mind, hands, or eyes away from driving can be a distraction. Save other tasks for when you arrive safely. #Distracteddrivingawarenessmonth #JerseyDrives #SafeRoadsNJ ... See MoreSee Less

IMO: it’s not the act of holding the cell phone that distracts the driver, it’s being in a conversation with someone. Hands free really doesn’t solve anything. I mean I can drink coffee held in my hand and change the channel on the radio legally, so what’s the difference of it being a cell vs a DD coffee???
