Day 1: Monday

52 citations issued

36 for speeding

12 for stop sign violations

Four other violations

Wrecks: Two in private business parking lots; one near Drugco

Notes: Chief Chuck Hasty is disappointed there have been wrecks, but hopes the numbers will be reduced from last year when there were 100 a month. All tickets issued are state citations and not city ordinance tickets.

Miscellaneous: With snowfall today, Hasty encourages motorists to slow down and increase following distance. No significant accumulation is expected but caution is encouraged at bridges and overpasses.
