Operation Safe Speed Targets Route 8
Description
Shaler Township police are rolling out “Operation Safe Speed” to crack down on reckless driving on Route 8, where speeds routinely exceed 40 mph—with some hitting 60+—and dangerous maneuvers like red-light runs and unsafe passing are fueling a surge in crashes. Last year’s 32 reportable accidents and 61 non-reportable incidents have already seen 14 reportable and 38 non-reportable crashes this year, prompting a targeted enforcement push during peak hours. Residents back the effort, citing distracted driving as a key factor, while police aim to reshape habits and make Route 8 safer for all.
