The Bermuda Police Service announced that a total of 131 traffic citations were handed out during two separate six‑hour enforcement sweeps on Friday and Sunday. The moves were part of a high‑visibility policing campaign aimed at curbing two of the most common infractions on the island’s roads.

In a statement released by the service, officers highlighted speeding and the use of handheld devices while driving as the leading offences that drew the bulk of the tickets. The campaign, which targeted busy thoroughfares and key junctions, was designed to deter dangerous driving habits and promote road safety among residents and visitors.

The police spokesperson noted that the initiative was a continuation of ongoing efforts to reduce accidents and improve traffic flow across Bermuda. "Our focus this weekend was on speeding and mobile‑device use, which remain persistent issues on our roads," they said. The citations were issued in a matter of minutes as officers monitored traffic patterns and flagged violations.

The Bermuda Police Service reiterated its commitment to enforce traffic laws consistently and to collaborate with local communities to foster safer driving practices. The latest enforcement effort follows a series of road‑safety campaigns that have been rolled out over the past few months, underscoring the island’s dedication to protecting all road users.
