SANTA MONICA—On Monday, January 27, the city of Santa Monica posted on its website that the Police Department will be conducting a Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety Operation on Wednesday, January 29.

From 2 p.m. to 9 p.m. the Operation will focus on the most dangerous driver behaviors that put the safety of people biking or walking at risk. These violations include speeding, making illegal turns, failing to yield or provide right of way to bicyclists or pedestrians, or failing to stop for signs and signals.

Bicyclists and pedestrians have the same rights to the road but face even more risk without the protections vehicles have. We should all be looking out for one another. Funding for this program is provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
