PennDOT to Join with Clearfield Borough Police at Fair

CLEARFIELDPennDOT will team up with the Clearfield Borough Police Department at the Clearfield County Fair on Kids’ Day.

The Clearfield Borough Police Department will offer free fingerprinting from 10:30 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. Tuesday in the Expo II Plaza, while PennDOT will allow attendees to try their hand at Distract-A-Match.

The shape- and color-matching game shows how distractions can inhibit a person’s ability to complete a simple game. Participants are able to see that adding variables to a more complex task, such as driving, can have wider effects.

Starting in the fall, Distract-A-Match will also be available to demonstrate at District 2 high schools and community organizations. PennDOT’s District 2 includes Cameron, Centre, Clinton, Clearfield, Elk, Juniata, McKean, Mifflin and Potter counties. To schedule the game, contact Safety Press Officer Dawn Roussey at 814-765-0598.
