On Tuesday, the Langley RCMP Traffic Enforcement Unit (TEU) conducted a targeted enforcement in the area of 256 Street and 0 Avenue.
With the warm weather conditions, Mounties recognized there would be a high volume of cyclists on the roadway.
The TEU focused its efforts on ensuring cyclist safety and reducing risk.
Within two hours, six drivers were ticketed for excessive speed and had their vehicles impounded for seven days.
Each of these drivers were travelling more than 41km/h above the posted speed limit.
“Excessive speeding continues to pose a serious risk to public safety,” said Cst. Meghan Marsden, Media Relations Officer for the Langley RCMP. “We focused enforcement efforts in this area due to the high number of cyclists and the increased danger that speeding creates, especially in warmer weather. Drivers need to slow down and be mindful of others. We will continue targeted enforcement to help keep our community safe.”
