Electronic Sign Aims to Curb Speeding in New Baltimore

The speed measuring awareness trailer will be positioned along streets with frequent speeders.

New Baltimore drivers will soon notice an electronic sign that posts their speed as they travel down main or side streets.  The newly purchased Speed Measuring Awareness Trailer, also known as a SMART sign, was bought from Huntington Woods police at auction for $600 and decorated for local police for about another $400.

You would think that the police would patrol that area closely because of the schools. The police come out…   more ›
