I have speeding motorists in my neighborhood. What do I do?
Speeding motorists are a problem in many neighborhoods throughout the state. The State Department of Transportation has studied these types of problems and found that reducing the speed limit, installing stop signs, installing speed bumps, or posting 'Children at Play' signs are not effective and may instill a false sense of security for pedestrians and children.

This brochure also explains a number of ways that parents can improve the safety of their children. These include working in neighborhood groups to report speeding motorists to the Police Department, driving the 25-mph speed limit themselves, and educating their children about street safety. Anyone who witnesses a traffic violation is encouraged to call the Multi-Agency Communication Center (MACC) to report the type of violation and the license plate number of the vehicle. This call can be made 24 hours a day, and the complainant can remain anonymous.
