In response to a troubling rise in pedestrian fatalities, the Sacramento Police Department is intensifying traffic enforcement in Midtown as part of Pedestrian Safety Month. Recent operations have led to 49 citations for drivers failing to yield to pedestrians, highlighting a disturbing trend of 55 pedestrian deaths in the past year. Officers are focusing on the most dangerous driving behaviors, including speeding and illegal turns, with special attention to nighttime safety due to a lack of coverage during those hours. The Chula Vista Police Department is also participating in statewide efforts, conducting traffic operations to enhance pedestrian safety, urging both drivers and pedestrians to remain vigilant and avoid distractions. Funding for similar programs is provided by state grants aimed at reducing traffic-related incidents. Community feedback indicates a strong desire for increased enforcement to address safety concerns, particularly at critical intersections.
