Last week Sheriff’s Office deputies were out patrolling our school zones in a effort to increase child safety and reduce speeding complaints. 102 violations were addressed during these specified times during a 4 day period. We encourage all motorist to observe the speed limits at all times especially in our school areas as deputies will continue to monitor them.
Here’s an idea why don’t you bring back a traffic division that once Aiken county had when they had the DUI TASK FORCE I mean it’s great and all that you have 2 chargers per shift to act as chase cars to perform pit maneuvers when car chases happen but those cars are still assigned to road patrol it’s amazing how Aiken city has a traffic grant north Augusta has a traffic grant and a traffic division Aiken county bottom line needs a traffic division of some sort I mean highway patrol is short handed as you well know I am sure that it would be greatly appreciated by HP if ACSO could help and get a traffic division back In operation
I had a school bus pass me in the school zone on Clearwater rd at Belair rd. with the 25mph sign flashing!
You were all over Aiken high Rutland dr
Stephanie Lancaster
Thanks for what you do!!! Should have been by Kennedy this morning prob got that many more. Keep up the good work and God Bless
Go to Toolebeck road they speed there also.
THANK YOU . I have zero issues with putting a stop to these people who think the safety of our children takes a back seat to their hurry to be somewhere.
When I used to pick up at Aiken High, there were many that sped through those flashing lights. Lots of works trucks and dump trucks including DOT trucks. It was quite scary dodging potential wrecks!
I have asked for years for some help at Redcliffe elementary. Was told that they don't have the man power to patrol. Then you ride down the road to Jackson and there is two or three sitting talking with the Jackson police. The mornings are the worst fighting SRS traffic.
Only problem is... Only being in one area for one day won't make a difference :(
People speed like crazy through this specific area daily!!! 😔😔😔
