~ Naperville Police Department Joins Statewide Effort to Reduce Speeding

In an effort to promote safer roads and reduce the number of speed-related accidents, the Naperville Police Department has announced a partnership with the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT), the Illinois State Police, and over 200 local law enforcement agencies. This collaboration will involve increased patrols throughout the month of July, targeting speeding and other traffic violations.

According to Sgt. Derek Zook, there has been a concerning rise in careless and risky driving in recent years. He emphasizes that regardless of one's driving abilities, speeding is a dangerous behavior that should not be taken lightly. "Speed limits are not mere suggestions, they are laws," he states firmly.

The dangers of speeding are well-documented, as it reduces a driver's ability to safely navigate around other vehicles, obstacles, or unexpected turns. To combat this issue, officers will be intensifying their enforcement of posted speed limits during this campaign. Offenders will be stopped and ticketed, with a particular focus on major roadways where many speed-related crashes occur. The ultimate goal is to save lives.

Motorists in Naperville can expect to see an increased presence of police patrols from July 6th to 31st. Any drivers caught exceeding the speed limit will face consequences from the Naperville Police Department. This initiative is part of IDOT's "Speeding Catches Up With You" campaign and is made possible by federal highway safety funds. It also aligns with IDOT's broader "It's Not a Game" media campaign.

The Naperville Police Department urges all drivers to adhere to posted speed limits for their own safety and that of others on the road. Let us all do our part in making our roads safer for everyone.
