Prince George’s County Launches Automated Speed Enforcement Program
Prince George’s County, Maryland…Prince George’s County will launch the operation of its Automated Speed Enforcement Program on Monday, August 22, 2011. The program will begin with its first Automated Speed Enforcement camera being placed within a half-mile radius of Issac Gourdine Middle School and Tayac Elementary School in the 8400 – 9000 block(s) of Allentown Road in Fort Washington. The camera will be in operation Monday – Friday from 6:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m., and will cover two opposing directions of travel.“Our top priority is the safety of our students and those who live and work in Prince George’s County,” said Mark A. Magaw, Chief of Police. “Speeding is a significant public safety issue and the mere presence of the cameras will deter aggressive driving behaviors.”
The Automated Speed Enforcement Program is intended to promote pedestrian safety, while deterring excessive speeding within a half-mile radius around schools designated as School Zones. The program will use speed monitoring systems to photograph speed violations in areas that have been identified with cooperative research through the Department of Public Works and Transportation based on traffic counts, congestion and accident information. A 30-day warning period will be in effect before official citations are issued to motorists caught speeding. At the end of the warning period, citations will be issued.
Locations of additional cameras – and more information about the program – can be found on pgpolice.org or call the Prince George’s County Police Department’s Press Information Office at (301) 772-4710.Speed Camera Press Conference:

Prince George’s County Police Department Starts the New School Year with Car Seat Check-Up
Prince George’s County, Maryland… The Prince George’s County Police Department in partnership with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Prince George’s Community Federal Credit Union (PGCFCU) will hold its first back to school car seat check-up this Friday. The event is free and open to the public.
According to the NHTSA, while the installation and use of car seats may appear to be easy, 75%, or 3 out of 4 Maryland parents or caretakers use child vehicle restraints improperly. “Since we know that most of us don’t know the best practice for using car seats and boosters to get optimum protection for our children, we thought we’d start performing car seats check-ups as a way to reduce the number of injuries and fatalities associated with them in vehicle accidents. This is also an excellent opportunity to educate our parents on the proper purchase and installation of car seats,” said Deputy Chief, Bureau of Patrol, Colonel Kevin Davis.
Certified car seat technicians will be on hand to check for recalls, ensure car seats and boosters are installed correctly, and to check that the harness and vehicle installations are correct for the child. The car seat check-up takes about 30 minutes and involves drivers, parents and caretakers. All car seats must be installed before arriving at the car seat check-up site. Owner’s manuals for the safety seats and vehicle, if available, should be presented to the car seat technicians. The PGCFCU will replace the first 6 – 10 car seats that have been recalled or are unsafe.
