Peace Officers to Target Intersections on Campus
University Peace Officers will be watching for drivers failing to yield to pedestrians or oncoming traffic, and stop sign violations as part of Operation Crossroads today and tomorrow on campus. Special awareness will also be made for individuals not wearing seat belts or operating an electronic device while driving.
The U of S is very busy throughout the year, seeing large amounts pedestrian and bicycle traffic, in addition to vehicles. It is important to pay attention to the road while driving to, from or through our beautiful campus.
