DUI Saturation Patrol in Boynton Beach Friday night

DUI Saturation Patrol in Boynton Beach Friday night



Boynton Beach Police Officers will be on the hunt for impaired drivers this Friday night.

The DUI Saturation Patrol will be citywide from 9 p.m. to 2 a.m.

Officers, with assistance from the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office DUI and Aggressive Driving Units, will be actively enforcing DUI and Traffic laws.



Watch your speed on Old Boynton Road



Old Boynton Road has re-opened after more than a year of expansion and repairs. But a wider road is not a green light for speeding.

The speed limit on Old Boynton Road from Boynton Beach Boulevard to Congress Avenue is 30 mph, and Boynton Beach Police intend to enforce it.

Message boards and speed trailers have been set up on the roadway to remind motorists of the 30 mph limit. Traffic Officers will be out there strictly enforcing the speed limit. Tickets will be written to motorists who don’t obey the limit.





Police to have zero tolerance for seat belt slackers





Wear your seat belt or Boynton Beach Police will write you a ticket. It’s that simple.

The Boynton Beach Police Department is participating in the national Click It or Ticket campaign, which kicks off May 24 and will be enforced through June 6.

During the enforcement effort, officers will issue seatbelt tickets to motorists throughout the city who are not buckled up.

Click It or Ticket is a cooperative effort of the Florida Department of Transportation, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and law enforcement agencies across the state. For more information, log onto www.nhtsa.gov/CIOT.
