WSP to perform emphasis patrols along I-5 in Snohomish County

EVERETT — Washington State Patrol officers will undertake emphasis patrols along I-5 between south Everett and Arlington through the end of July, the agency announced Monday.

Three other sections of interstates throughout Washington — near Tacoma, Spokane and Federal Way — will also see increased enforcement. The emphasis patrols began Monday and will end July 31.

The agency chose those areas based on crash data and information from telematics systems, which combine data from on-board vehicle sensors and GPS information to monitor driver behavior.

Emphasis patrols increase police presence along certain roadways or at specific times in an attempt to curb dangerous driver behavior.
