Pocono Township Police to Participate in Aggressive-Driving Enforcement Initiative

Tannersville, PA – Pocono Township Police Department will join the Pennsylvania State Police and approximately 300 municipal agencies to conduct a targeted aggressive-driving enforcement wave from October 21 through November 10, 2024.

The goal of targeted enforcement is to reduce the number of aggressive driving related crashes, injuries, and deaths on roadways throughout the state. Any aggressive driver stopped by police will receive a ticket.

The enforcement wave will focus on school bus violations, the Move Over Law, tailgating, and speeding. Motorists exhibiting other unsafe behaviors such as driving too fast for conditions, following too closely, or other aggressive actions will also be cited.

The enforcement is part of Pennsylvania’s Highway Safety Program and is funded by part of PennDOT’s investment of federal funds from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
