 | Enforcement saturation on Hwy. 8
Area law enforcement agencies coordinated a Towards Zero Deaths program saturation to enforce no passing on the right laws, on Hwy. 8. The state program funds hours for departments to come together to run concentrated patrols on seat belt use, adhering to speed limits, pedestrian right-of-way observation and other traffic related concerns.
There were over a dozen tickets issued in the area of Highway 8 near connectors Hamlet and Hazel avenues, as drivers went around the passenger sides of squad cars waiting to turn left off the highway.
