Campaign underway
As the 2023-24 school year gets underway, Indiana Criminal Justice Institute has more than 200 law enforcement agencies participating in its Stop Arm Violation Enforcement (SAVE) campaign.
The campaign, funded through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, adds patrols looking for stop-arm violations, speeding and other forms of reckless driving around school buses and in school zones.
In April, a one-day observational survey found 2,091 stop-arm violations in Indiana.
