14ds agoResidents of a Bellmore neighborhood say an exclusive News 12 story has made a difference in their lives.
Nassau Police have been pulling over drivers for running the stop sign at Hewlett Lane and Cottage Court. The stepped-up enforcement began after a News 12 report showed drivers running the stop sign.
According to police, eight summonses were issued on Feb. 9, two days after the story first aired.
“They have been pulling people over. They have no shortage of people that they have been pulling over,” said Tricia Knight, who lives in front of the intersection.
Neighbors say drivers are still running the stop sign when police are not around. They want a flashing stop sign and speed cameras.
The Town of Hempstead is considering installing a light-up LED stop sign. A Nassau County spokesperson says there is no plan to institute speed cameras.
