Milwaukee, WI – The Milwaukee Police Department is intensifying efforts to reduce reckless driving by enforcing a citywide towing policy. Officials announced that any vehicle caught engaging in reckless driving can now be towed on the spot.
According to the Milwaukee Police Department, the initiative targets dangerous driving behaviors that have contributed to a surge in crashes and pedestrian injuries throughout the city. The new measure aims to deter drivers from speeding, weaving through traffic, or engaging in street racing.
The department shared the reminder on social media Wednesday, warning residents: “Be aware or you’ll get towed.” The post urges drivers to “be part of the solution” by following traffic laws and driving safely.
City officials say the towing enforcement is part of a broader public safety campaign launched earlier this year. The program includes increased patrols, coordination with traffic enforcement teams, and community outreach focused on reducing reckless behavior on Milwaukee streets.
Residents are encouraged to report reckless drivers by contacting the Milwaukee Police Department’s non-emergency line or submitting tips online.
