(September 4, 2021) - The Cape Coral Police Department will be conducting a second high visibility traffic enforcement operation tonight, September 6th, 2021. This is part of our continuing effort to increase traffic safety awareness through education and enforcement. The mission of these operations is to help reduce traffic crashes, injuries, and deaths on the roadways in Cape Coral.
This high visibility traffic enforcement operation will be conducted by Patrol and Traffic officers. This operation will be citywide. The results of the September 4th operation are below.
Officers will be focusing on moving violations such as speeding, red-light and stop sign violations, as well as aggressive driving. Additional focus will be placed on criminal violations such as DUI and reckless driving. Visible enforcement increases awareness, encourages motorists to obey traffic laws, and reduces crashes. The Cape Coral Police Department encourages you to drive courteously and reminds you to obey the rules of the road. If you are impaired, please use a designated driver, ride share app or taxi to avoid the costly fines of a DUI arrest.
###
Please note that the Supreme Court ruled that law enforcement must announce to the public when DUI checkpoints will be conducted. The publicity is a protection of your rights; in any case, the checkpoint will do its job and keep drunk drivers off the road, either through arrest or deterrence. In the case of grant-funded high visibility traffic enforcement, public announcement is required to obtain grant funding.
