Barrington Hills Police conducted a successful Halloween enforcement safety crackdown, resulting in 49 citations for speeding and 1 citation for distracted driving violations. Additionally, officers issued 32 citations for other enforcement contacts.
Law enforcement agencies across Illinois participated in this statewide effort to save lives by removing impaired drivers from the roadways and ensuring more drivers and passengers were properly buckled up.
The fall enforcement campaign, which ran from Oct. 24 through Nov. 3, was part of the “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” and “Drive High. Get a DUI” initiatives.
This enforcement effort was made possible through federal highway safety funds administered by the Illinois Department of Transportation.
