Massachusetts and 14 other states tomorrow will kick off the “I-90/94 Challenge” on Interstates 90 and 94 across the United States. Here, Troop E, which is responsible for patrolling the Turnpike (Route 90) from Boston to the New York line, will conduct enforcement efforts focusing on distracted and impaired driving, excessive speed, seatbelt use, motorcycle violations, and defective equipment on and unsafe driving of large trucks and buses. Troop E will utilize marked, semi-marked, low profile, and unmarked patrol vehicles. In addition to normal staffing levels, additional troopers will be added to every shift throughout the 96-hour period to conduct saturation patrols throughout the length of the Turnpike. The road patrols will be complemented by patrols run by members of the Troop E Community Action Team and Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Unit. /snip Be careful out there, looks like it's open season or commuters this weekend === If the Mass cops really want to interdict dangerous drivers, all they have to do is go to downtown Boston during any rush hour. I drove in and around New York City and northern New Jersey for many years and none of them can compare to Boston drivers for shear reckless aggression. That would get them too many locals.. they want interstate travelers and vacationers so it makes less impact on those paying their paychecks.. They will be looking harder at "out of state" plates, no doubt... |
