Piscataway police cracked down on drivers failing to stop for pedestrians along a busy school corridor, issuing 22 summonses during a targeted enforcement operation.

The Piscataway Police Department’s Traffic Safety Division conducted the operation on Old New Brunswick Road in response to numerous complaints from residents about motorists failing to stop for pedestrians attempting to cross the roadway.

Authorities said the corridor sees heavy foot traffic from children walking to school.

During the operation, officers conducted 24 motor vehicle stops and issued 22 summonses for traffic violations.

Police emphasized that New Jersey law requires drivers to stop and remain stopped for pedestrians within crosswalks.

The initiative is part of an ongoing police effort to improve pedestrian safety across the township and protect students walking to school.
