As millions of travelers hit the road for summer vacations, the North Aurora Police Department is joining with the Illinois Department of Transportation and Illinois State Police to urge motorists to stop speeding and help ensure everyone reaches their destinations safely.

“Over the past few years, we have seen an increase in careless and risky driving. No matter how safe of a driver you think you may be, speeding is dangerous,” said Chief DeLeo, “Speed limits aren’t a suggestion – they are the law.”

Drivers can expect a ticket from the North Aurora Police Department if they are spotted speeding. Stepped-up patrols will be seen throughout North Aurora and the state July 6-31.

The speed enforcement effort is made possible by federal traffic safety funds administered by IDOT.
