Last week, the Dane County Sheriff’s Office announced increased traffic enforcement efforts on US Highway 151. Between Friday and Monday, deputies working this stretch of highway in Dane County handed out fifty-one citations.
Thirty of those citations were for speeding. Kenneth R. Edwards, age 19 of Sun Prairie, was stopped and cited after traveling at 99 mph with a suspended license. Six other citations were given for Operating After Revocation/Operating After Suspension, and fourteen people were cited for no seatbelt.
The Wisconsin Department of Transportation organized the enforcement, which will continue through Sunday, August 24th.
