Morris Plains to participate in the July 2008 Speed Crackdown
During the month of July, police agencies in the Division's North Region
(Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Passaic, Morris, Sussex, and Warren) will take
part in the second "Obey the Signs or Pay the Fines" speed crackdown.
The program was first piloted in July, 2006, in four counties (Bergen,
Essex, Hudson, and Passaic) as part of a NHTSA Tri-State initiative.
During the July, 2007 campaign 115 police departments participated and
issued more than 6,300 speeding citations. The program has been expanded
for the July, 2008 campaign in hopes that more police departments will
take part in the effort to address the issue of speed, which is a
contributing factor in many fatal and serious injury crashes. Grant
funding has been awarded to approximately 70 police agencies for the
campaign, and many additional departments will participate at their own
expense. The purpose of the campaign is to aggressively enforce speed
limits on both highways and residential roads. Police
will be writing tickets, not giving warnings. Speeding fines range from
$85 to $260. In addition, motor vehicle points can be assessed on the
offender’s license. Help solve a crime with an anonymous tip, Visit our 'CrimeStoppers Page'.
'The Morris Plains Police handled 2,297 calls in June 2008' The 2006 Uniform Crime Report (UCR) has been completed. You can see Morris Plains UCR information at the bottom of our Statistics page.
