Arlington County Police cited 11 drivers in two places earlier this week for failing to yield to pedestrians in crosswalks.
Department spokeswoman Ashley Savage said the tickets were issued from two locations: the intersections of Washington Blvd and 4th Street N. in Lyon Park; and Columbia Pike and S. Oakland Street in Alcova Heights.
Police said the program is part of its 2017 Street Smart Pedestrian, Driver, and Bicyclist Safety Campaign from November 6 through December 3.
The program aims to change road users’ behavior while reducing the number of crashes and injuries. Officers ticketed motorists, bicyclists and pedestrians who violated traffic laws.
Officers will conduct another high-visibility enforcement effort on November 30.
Ensuring the safety of pedestrians, cyclists and motorists and maintaining the safe flow of traffic is the primary mission of our Special Operations Section. Help us by being #StreetSmart. Tips: https://t.co/LKVAW4x01X pic.twitter.com/kRIwqx1Jeg

Drivers given a safe stopping distance of 170 feet. Our pedestrian always waits for a safe break and never enters the crosswalk in disregard of approaching traffic. #StreetSmart pic.twitter.com/pAz1KhwkRM
