Monrovia : Traffic Violations Targeted
Neighborhoods that draw complaints about repeated traffic violations will be targeted with signs and special police enforcement under a new program approved Tuesday by the City Council. The blue signs, which feature a silhouette of a police motorcycle, say “Special Traffic Enforcement Area” and ask motorists to “Please Obey All Laws.” They will be posted in areas with traffic problems such as speeding or failure to stop for stop signs, Police Capt. Robert Page said.
Along with the signs, there will be a heavy police presence in those areas for 30 days, Page said. If the traffic problems do not diminish, the program can be extended. Up to 10 special enforcement areas can be established in the city at one time, Page said.
