UC Police Step Up Patrols at Lab to Improve Safety

The UC Police Department has increased their traffic patrols at the Lab in an effort to improve safety. Those who violate the California Vehicle Code for driving and parking will be cited and ticketed. The patrols, which started a few months ago, have helped reduce incidents involving cars, bicycles and pedestrians, some of which resulted injury. In addition to speeding and running stop signs, tickets will be issued to cars that are parked in motorcycle spaces, red zones, and handicap spaces without authorization, or are blocking fire hydrants or other vehicles (except in stacked parking lots).
