🚨 TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT ALERT 🚨
Our Traffic Unit is conducting maximum enforcement in the area of College Ave & Vandegrift Blvd, focusing on excessive vehicle noise and speeding.
Slow down and drive responsibly!
REMINDER: Surron electric dirt bikes are not street-legal and fleeing from the police isn’t “tuff.” It’s dangerous, it puts everyone on the road at risk.
Surron was seized as evidence during a search warrant related to a felony evading investigation — VC 2800.2.
