JACKSON TOWNSHIP, NJ –  We’re not sure if it’s the pandemic or something else going on, but driving in Jackson has gone from bad to worse recently and now, the Jackson Township Police Department announced it will begin bad driving enforcement patrols.

“The Jackson Township Police Department will be conducting a traffic enforcement program throughout the month of March,” the department said. “The need for driver education and enforcement is ongoing due to traffic volumes within the township.”

Officers will be deployed at various locations looking for violations including, but not limited to, primary collision factors involving speed, red light, and right-of-way violations. W

hen violations are observed, violators will be cited and/or educated on the safety concerns associated with the violation.
