On Tuesday evening, the City Council will decide whether or not to accept a $110,000.00 Step Grant for a “Selective Traffic Enforcement Program.” With the grant funds the City of San Rafael could improve traffic safety by conducting DUI checkpoints and saturation patrols, distracted driving enforcement, high collision intersection enforcement, speed enforcement patrols, and enforcement traffic stops. We will also get funds for motorcycle safety enforcement and bicycle/pedestrian safety enforcement. The goal of this grant is to reduce the number of persons killed or injured in vehicle collisions involving alcohol, speed, red light violations and other primary collision factors.
