Carmel, IN – A coordinated traffic enforcement effort across Hamilton County last week led to 200 traffic stops, according to the Carmel Police Department.
Carmel officers partnered with the Indiana State Police, Westfield Police Department, and Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office to target aggressive, distracted, and impaired driving along major corridors, including Keystone Parkway, U.S. 31, and 146th Street.
According to police, the multi-agency effort resulted in 120 citations, 135 warnings, and nine arrests or summonses. Officers also monitored commercial motor vehicle violations as part of the safety sweep.
Authorities say the initiative was part of an ongoing commitment to reduce crashes and keep county roadways safe for all drivers. The campaign emphasized safe behaviors such as slowing down, buckling up, and avoiding cellphone use behind the wheel.
Police thanked participating agencies and drivers who cooperated during the enforcement period. “For everyone else… we’ll see you out there,” the Carmel Police Department said in a statement, reminding motorists that additional patrols may continue throughout the season.
