‘Bike Safety’ is Police focus for May
Edina, Minn., April 22, 2015 – As a part of Edina Police Department’s monthly “Focus In” campaign, officers will “Focus In” on bike safety in May.
“Interest in biking as an alternative means of transportation and recreational sport continues to gain traction,” said Sgt. Nate Mendel. “With this interest, there is a growing need to educate cyclists and motorists on the laws and ordinances.”
Each month, patrol officers focus police efforts on a specific statutory violation in order to educate the public and gain compliance.
Education includes a warning to those who violate the statutes or codes. In extenuating circumstances, a citation may be issued. The violations the Police Department “Focus In” on have seasonal relevance, affect the quality of life in Edina or pose safety risks to residents. All statutes are enforced year-round, but additional attention is paid to the focus of the month.
Police have already focused on obstructed vision, failure to signal, unsafe equipment and failure to display headlights. In the coming months, police will “Focus In” on following too close, pedestrian safety, child and seatbelt safety, distracted driving, speeding in school zones, night and snow parking, and the “move over” law.
For more information, contact the Edina Police Department at 952-826-1610.
