Your West Traffic Division Motors had a great weekend at the Wilshire Community Carnival last weekend.

Officers enjoyed speaking with the community about various traffic safety topics and had tons of happy community members walk away with some bike lights and stickers.

Our officers here love to spend their time with the community and promoting safe driving within the areas we cover to keep everyone safe.

Traffic safety is always important but with the Holidays around the corner and the days getting darker earlier we ask that y’all stay extra vigilant to ensure safety for all.

DUI laws just got stricter. Stiffer consequences can come earlier and license revocations can last longer.

Best defense is to just drive sober!!! ALL DUIS ARE 💯 AVOIDABLE.

Buzzed driving is drunk driving, Drive high get a DUI.

We get it all the time… why don’t you go fight real crime? Well here it is, we do but not in the way you think it should be done.
Traffic enforcement is the same as proactive policing, prevent the crime before it happens or prevent the crash before it happens. Get a DUI driver off the road before they cause a crash.
These collisions that are prevented could have been a tragic deadly crash which can be a major crime, vehicular homicide, vehicular homicide dui involved, vehicular homicide with gross negligence and even Watson Murder (dui murder).

Drunk driving is 100% avoidable, get an uber, Lyft, taxi anything but drive yourself. Don’t be the next name listed in the news as the one who killed someone else.

An average day in the life of a Motor. Non stop action from the time they start the bike up till they park it for the night.

When you go to get one violator but another one decides to ignore the stop sign with the motor already in the intersection 🙈. Some violators deserve more attention than the others.

Yesterday we partnered with LAPD Olympic Division Senior Lead Officers to conduct pedestrian safety and awareness along the Western Corridor which has been a hot spot for recent Fatal Collisions involving pedestrians.

When the crossing lights flash slow it down, look for pedestrians crossing or about to cross.
Stop and allow them to cross.
Give them adequate space before proceeding to not present a hazard to them.
If a vehicle has already stopped for the pedestrians do not overtake that vehicle.
