44 Citations in Clark County Crackdown

Police issued 44 driving citations during last weekend’s extra patrols aimed at speeders and impaired drivers.

Of the 44, three were cited on suspicion of driving under the influence, eight for speeding, one for aggressive driving and the remaining number for a variety of violations, said Vancouver Police Department spokeswoman Kim Kapp.

The patrols took place in Clark County, WA on Friday and Saturday as part of a statewide emphasis dubbed "X52" and initiated by the Washington Traffic Safety Commission.

The added patrols take place every week in a different part of the state and are paid for by grant money from the safety commission. The grant money covers overtime.
