Rossland speed trap shows reliable residents following the rules
By Rossland Telegraph
Police conducted a quiet speed trap in a Rossland school zone Thursday, and were gratified at the level of compliance shown by local motorists, according to Trail RCMP top cop Sgt. Mike Wicentowich,
“On March 12, 2021, Cpl. Splinter conducted school zone speed enforcement in Rossland near the Rossland Summit School. Trail RCMP Cpl. James Splinter used a handheld laser to measure the speed of vehicles travelling through the school zone.
We were very pleased to see that Cpl. Splinter found most vehicles were complying with the 30 km/hr posted speed limit, said Wicentowich. The Trail and Greater District RCMP would like to thank BC RCMP Traffic Services and West Kootenay Traffic Services for supplying the handheld laser device to help front line Trail RCMP officers better combat speeding in problem areas.
Wicentowich said only two people were pulled over and issued warnings.
