The Lee County Sheriff’s Office Traffic Unit will target at least one of the following three locations for enforcement Wednesday, Feb. 11:

1. Hickory Boulevard, Bonita Springs

2. Brantley Road, Fort Myers

3. Orange River Boulevard, Fort Myers

Locations are selected based upon high incidents of crashes, traffic surveys and citizen complaints. The Sheriff’s Office is committed to promoting traffic safety and enforcing the law. By focusing on violations such as red light running, speeding, DUI and others, motorists become more alert and are encouraged to obey traffic laws. The Sheriff’s Office Traffic Unit and District Patrol Deputies enforce our traffic laws each day by issuing citations and warnings. Preliminary results from their cumulative activity yesterday are as follows:

Citations Issued: 67

Written Warnings Issued: 121

Citizens can help by letting us know if they observe problem areas, aggressive or impaired drivers and by their compliance with the rules of the road. To get in touch with one of our traffic deputies call (239) 477-1000. If you see a reckless or drunk driver while you are traveling in your motor vehicle in Lee County, dial 9-1-1.

This traffic enforcement advisory is available each day on the Sheriff’s Office Web site at www.sheriffleefl.org.

Everyone is reminded to “Fasten Your Seat Belts, be courteous to drivers and pedestrians and together we can reduce traffic related fatalities, injuries and property damage.”

Note: Occasionally accidents occur when courteous drivers allow another motorist to turn in front or cut across multiple lanes. If you’re the benefactor, please keep in mind it’s still your responsibility to look for oncoming traffic that have the right-of-way.
