Buffalo Grove motorists can expect increased patrols watching for speeding and other traffic violations during July. This initiative is part of a partnership with the Illinois Department of Transportation, the Illinois State Police, and more than 200 local law enforcement agencies.
"Speeding causes unnecessary danger on our roads," Buffalo Grove Police Commander Tara Anderson said, according to a Buffalo Grove Police Department press release. "Speed greatly reduces a driver’s ability to steer safely around another vehicle, a hazardous object or an unexpected curve. Speeding drivers put themselves, their passengers and other motorists at tremendous risk."
According to the Buffalo Grove Police Department press release, officers will intensify enforcement of posted speed limits during this speeding enforcement blitz.
Traffic safety funds administered by the Illinois Department of Transportation have made the speed enforcement effort possible, according to the Buffalo Grove Police Department press release.
