\t\tEditorial Standards \u24d8<\/a><\/p>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t\tAttention drivers, the California Highway Patrol plans to crack down on speeding for a 24-hour \u201cmaximum enforcement\u201d period this week.The operation is planned from 6 a.m. on Tuesday to 5:59 a.m. on Wednesday. The enforcement effort will take place at all hours, according to a release. \u201cSpeeding continues to be one of the leading causes of serious and fatal crashes on California\u2019s roadways,\u201d CHP Commissioner Sean Duryee said in a statement. \u201cWhen drivers choose to exceed safe speeds, they reduce their ability to react and increase the risk for everyone on the road. Slowing down is one of the simplest steps that drivers can take to protect themselves and others.\u201d CHP said officers issued 491,000 tickets last year for speed-related violations. CHP\u2019s records show that last year alone, there were 110,000 crashes that resulted from unsafe speeds, leading to more than 400 deaths and more than 68,000 injuries. The agency highlighted a pilot program with the Department of Motor Vehicles that automatically sends notice of speeding tickets for drivers going more than 100 mph to the DMV\u2019s Driver Safety Branch, which could then suspend or revoke a license.See more coverage of top California stories here | Download our app | Subscribe to our morning newsletter | Find us on YouTube here and subscribe to our channel\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n Attention drivers, the California Highway Patrol plans to crack down on speeding for a 24-hour \u201cmaximum enforcement\u201d period this week.<\/p>\n The operation is planned from 6 a.m. on Tuesday to 5:59 a.m. on Wednesday. <\/p>\n The enforcement effort will take place at all hours, according to a release. <\/p>\n \u201cSpeeding continues to be one of the leading causes of serious and fatal crashes on California\u2019s roadways,\u201d CHP Commissioner Sean Duryee said in a statement. \u201cWhen drivers choose to exceed safe speeds, they reduce their ability to react and increase the risk for everyone on the road.
