Metro targets area to boost traffic safety
A greater effort to limit the number of traffic accidents in the area along Rancho Drive where Las Vegas and North Las Vegas meet was announced recently by the Bolden Area Command of the Metropolitan Police Department.
Traffic enforcement, a department spokesman said, will be heightened and focused on three types of offenses that all too often result in motor vehicle collisions: speeding, running red lights and ignoring stop signs, and simple inattention on the part of drivers. The effort got under way on March 31.
Officers will concentrate additional traffic enforcement activities in the areas of Martin L. King Boulevard, Lake Mead Boulevard and Rancho Drive, the spokesman said.
These efforts are expected to continue until a measurable reduction in the number of traffic accidents has been realized, police said.
