Traffic Safety
The radar trailer was placed in the area of McDonald Road and Swanson Road from 04-08-09 to 04-13-09. 34% of the vehicles clocked into radar were doing the speed limit on McDonald Road, while 65% of the vehicles were clocked into radar at above 30 miles per hour. There were 10 citations written on McDonald road in the above time period.
With the information we obtain from the trailer and from input from citizens we can strategically place officers where the need is the greatest and at the time they are needed most.
