The NYPD has announced a traffic enforcement operation as part of the Vision Zero plan to reduce traffic collisions and conditions that cause death and injury.

The initiative started on Monday and concludes Sunday, June 1.

Enforcement will be conducted in 21 selected precincts throughout the five boroughs and will focus on hazardous driving behaviors such as speeding, passing through red lights, driving while using a cellphone, driving while texting, making improper turns, disobeying traffic signs and failing to yield to pedestrians.

There will also be focused enforcement on parking violations that create roadway hazards for pedestrians, as well as bicyclists and vehicles. These violations include parking at a bus stop or in a crosswalk and double parking.

The NYPD strongly encourages safe driving and urges the public to use caution and drive safely by adhering to vehicle traffic laws when driving on city streets.
