CSUMB’s Interim Police Chief, Yvonne Gordon, would like to inform the public and campus community of the coming STOPP (Strategic Traffic Observation and Prevention Program) traffic enforcement event, happening Thursday, Oct. 24, on and around the campus of Cal State Monterey Bay.

It’s not a checkpoint. It’s a monthly traffic monitoring event in which various agencies help each other with enforcement in different areas of the county.

The goal of STOPP is to increase safety and reduce the risk of collisions, injuries, and casualties by focusing mostly on hazardous violations.

This notification is a courtesy to drivers and an appeal to avoid speeding, tailgating and other traffic hazards, and to be aware of bicyclists and pedestrians.

“Please drive carefully, follow the rules of the road, and don’t be distracted,” says Interim Police Chief Yvonne Gordon. “Stay safe!”
