Law enforcement to target
campus crosswalk violations

Law enforcement officials will be conducting directed patrols

enforcing citations for crosswalk violations in the area of Boise

State during the month of March and early April, the university

announced recently.

The increased enforcement is a combined effort among the Office

of University Security at Boise State, the campus police team and

the Selective Traffic Enforcement Team of the Ada County

Sheriff’s Office in partnership with the Idaho Transportation

Department’s Office of Highway Safety.

“We have enjoyed a fairly low pedestrian-involved accident

rate at BSU, however, with the ever-increasing student population

and additional vehicle traffic, we want to ensure that this trend

continues,” said Bob Seibolt, director of University

Security.

Law enforcement agencies will have numerous patrol motorcycles

and cars around the BSU area to stop individuals who fail to yield

to pedestrians in crosswalks, as well as pedestrians who fail to

utilize crosswalks when appropriate.
