SIUE PD Conducts Traffic Enforcement Detail to Curtail Traffic Incidents and Increase Safety
On Oct. 28, SIUE Police conducted a traffic enforcement detail on the Edwardsville campus. The focus of the detail was for officers to have high visibility and monitor speeding motorists, motorists disregarding traffic control devices, motorists failing to yield to pedestrians in crosswalks and distracted motorists entering campus.
The traffic detail was intended to increase safety on campus by encouraging motorists to drive safely and follow all rules of the road, encourage pedestrians to pay attention while walking on campus and to reduce the risk of traffic accidents.
The results from the one-day detail are as follows:
“Traffic safety is everyone's responsibility. Whether you're driving, walking, or biking, staying alert, following traffic laws, and looking out for one another helps keep our entire community safe,” said SIUE PD Chief David Goodwin.
A traffic detail has been scheduled for the very near future. SIUE PD encourages everyone to continue doing their part to keep the SIUE campus safe.
