Thought I might share with you an update on our current enforcement efforts as part of the national "Click It or Ticket" campaign. Traffic Officers working speed enforcement along South Edgewood Drive last Friday wrote 13 speed citations and 11 seatbelt citations. Do the math and that is almost 100% non-compliance.
Traffic Officers working speeding enforcement on Brunnell Parkway last Friday wrote 20 speeding citations and 27 seatbelt citations. How did we get more than 100% non-compliance? Passengers who are not wearing a seatbelt can be ticketed as well.
DUI Officers conducting patrols over the holiday weekend made 6 DUI arrests on Saturday.
"Click It or Ticket" runs through June 1. Please buckle up when you get on the road. Our officers are working hard to ensure safety on our highways and we ask you to do the same.
