The Douglas County Sheriff's Office and the Nevada Highway Patrol will be working a joint traffic safety detail throughout Douglas County.
The specialized enforcement detail is made possible by a grant from the Department of Public Safety/Office of Traffic Safety. The officers working this enforcement detail will be concentrating their efforts on drivers who fail to yield to pedestrians in a crosswalk and driving under the influence violations.
Nevada traffic laws require that the driver of a motor vehicle must yield to a pedestrian in a crosswalk.
A minimum fine of $91 may be levied against any driver who fails to yield, according to Sgt. Tom Mezzetta of the Douglas County Sheriff's Office.
