Portland Cracks Down on Traffic Safety | Portland Maine News

Published 5 days, 5 hours ago
Description

Portland’s rolling out a bold new traffic safety push under Vision Zero, aiming for zero deaths and serious injuries by cracking down on dangerous driving — with officers targeting speeding, drunk or distracted drivers, and enforcing right-of-way rules for pedestrians and cyclists. Lieutenant Eric Nevins says more tickets mean fewer crashes, but education is key: driving is a privilege with responsibilities, and even pedestrians must stay alert. This isn’t a short-term fix — enforcement will ramp up over the next few months to make streets safer for everyone. Got a tip? Call 207-874-8584 or text PPDME to 847411.
