PGPD, MSP, and AAPD to Conduct “Operation Road Runner”

     The Prince George’s County Police, in partnership with the Maryland State Police and Anne Arundel County Police, will be conducting “Operation Road Runner" this weekend. The traffic initiative will target speeding motorcyclists along a 14-mile stretch of Route 50.

     "I appreciate the partnership and support of the Maryland State Police and Anne Arundel County Police as we conduct cooperative traffic enforcement initiatives. These and other coordinated efforts will continue as we work together to make Maryland safer," said Chief Mark Magaw.

     “This is a traffic and public safety concern that crosses jurisdictional boundaries and we believe coordinating our efforts will lead to a more successful enforcement initiative,” said Captain Clifford Hughes, Commander of the Maryland State Police Washington Metro Troop. “Our goal is to provide effective enforcement that addresses the issue of speeding and reckless driving by motorcyclists, while increasing the level of safety for motorists on roads in Prince George’s County and the Washington Metro region.”
