State Police announce start of \u201cSpeed Week\u201d enforcement\ncampaign<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The state police will target speeding and aggressive drivers\nduring a special weeklong traffic enforcement initiative. This year\u2019s \u201cSpeed Week\u201d\nenforcement campaign started Thursday, June 6, 2019, and runs through\nWednesday, June 12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Troopers will also actively patrol highway work zones and\nwill target drivers who violate New York\u2019s \u201cMove Over\u201d Law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs summer travel season ramps up, we want drivers to\nunderstand that speeding can bring tragic consequences,\u201d said State Police\nSuperintendent Keith M. Corlett said. \u201cOur troopers will be highly visible\nduring this traffic-enforcement period and throughout the peak summer driving\nperiod, to ensure that drivers are following the posted speed limits and\nremoving reckless drivers from the road.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speeding is listed as a contributing factor in nearly one-third\nof all fatal crashes in New York state. According to the Institute for Traffic Safety\nManagement and Research at the University at Albany, in 2017, 301 people were\nkilled and 18,178 were injured in New York state in speed-related crashes. The\nNational Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that traffic crashes are\nthe leading cause of death for people ages 3 to 33.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During this Speed Week enforcement period, troopers will be\nusing marked vehicles and concealed identity traffic enforcement vehicles as\npart of the operation. The CITE vehicles allow troopers to more easily identify\nmotorists who are violating laws while driving. These vehicles blend in with\neveryday traffic but are unmistakable as emergency vehicles once the emergency\nlighting is activated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speeding by all vehicle types, as well as other traffic\nviolations, will be heavily enforced throughout the week in addition to normal\nyear-round enforcement. Troopers will also be watching for other traffic\nviolations, including distracted or impaired drivers, vehicle occupants who are\nnot properly buckled up and drivers violating New York\u2019s Move Over Law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the June 2018 Speed Week campaign, troopers issued\n24,581 total tickets, including 11,380 for speeding, 673 for distracted driving\nand 388 for violations of the Move Over law.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
