Saying Need for Traffic Enforcement is “On the Rise,” Pasadena Police Announce Special Patrols Again Friday

The Pasadena Police Department will be conducting a Traffic Enforcement program this Friday, August 19, 2016, throughout the City of Pasadena.

Officers will be deployed at various locations throughout the city to look for violations including, but not limited to, primary collision factors involving speed or red signals. When violations are observed, violators will cited and/or educated on the safety concerns associated with the violation.

The need for driver education and enforcement is constantly on the rise due to the increased volume of traffic within the City of Pasadena.

The Pasadena Police Department’s ultimate goal is to enforce and educate the driving public at the same time reducing serious injuries and fatal collisions.

Funding for these programs is provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
