Baltimore Police crackdown on reckless driving is overdue

Rare is the Baltimore commuter who has not had the jaw-dropping experience of seeing motor vehicles flashing by at speeds approaching triple digits or running through red lights or weaving through traffic like it was the final lap of the Daytona 500. That’s why it was heartening to hear Baltimore Police Commissioner Richard Worley reveal last weekend on WBAL NewsRadio that he plans to soon step up traffic enforcement, arguing that it can make driving safer and should reduce “road rage” incidents that can escalate into shootings.
