More than 60 Police Departments across Southeast Pennsylvania Target Aggressive Drivers during Statewide Mobilization
King of Prussia, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) today joined the Pennsylvania State Police and municipal police departments to kick off a statewide aggressive-driving mobilization that runs through April 25.
State police, along with over 60 municipal police departments from Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery, and Philadelphia counties, will take part in the wave to target motorists exhibiting aggressive-driving behaviors such as speeding, distracted driving, and work zone violations. Motorists exhibiting other unsafe behaviors such as driving too fast for conditions, following too closely, or other aggressive actions will also be cited.
Law enforcement will use traffic enforcement zones, saturation patrols, speed enforcement details, corridor enforcement, work zone enforcement, and multi-jurisdictional patrol strategies to identify and cite aggressive drivers.
Municipal police agencies that participated in last year’s campaign wrote 43,349 citations, including 22,353 for speeding, 1,003 for occupant protection violations, 3,077 for red light violations, and 126 impaired driving arrests.
