State Patrol needs to step up enforcement on freeways

Published 1:30 am Tuesday, April 4, 2023

Here is a short and simple suggestion to the Washington State Patrol that will help reduce accidents on the freeway: How about having an everyday emphasis patrol on excessive speeding and aggressive driving (tailgating, weaving in and out of lanes). Currently there is basically no enforcement.

The state may as well take down the 60 mph speed limit signs and replace them with 80 mph signs. The WSP should be embarrassed for its disregard of enforcing the laws of our highway system.
