Montgomery County, TX – A newly launched initiative by the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office is already making waves—literally at high speed. Over the weekend, deputies with the new Night Command Traffic Enforcement Unit stopped a driver allegedly traveling more than 112 miles per hour, according to a post from the Sheriff’s Office on Sunday.
The Sheriff’s Office said the suspect quickly learned that the department’s newly issued Ford Mustangs were not easy to outrun. The upgraded patrol vehicles are part of a broader push to improve nighttime road safety across Montgomery County.
According to officials, the Night Command Traffic Unit is designed to operate nightly, targeting aggressive and impaired drivers. The agency says it hopes the program will deter high-speed chases and reckless driving incidents that have surged in recent months.
The Sheriff’s Office encouraged residents to work together to report dangerous driving and keep local roads safe, adding that the new traffic enforcement presence will remain active every night.
