LAPD West Traffic Commander Captain Nancy Lauer dispatched police officer D.D. Gregg with a speeding task force to Palisades Drive on Saturday to make drivers aware of the speed limits that they routinely ignore. The team, armed with the latest laser speed guns pulled-over 25+ motorists per hour during the morning and early afternoon.
The team, made up of active duty and police reserve units, was practicing and coordinating their efforts for upcoming deployments. Police say that they will be in the canyon on nights and weekends, at all hours. Some drivers still warn speeders of the police presence, by flashing their lights, and their pictures appear below.
