Chesterfield Police stopped 180 vehicles on Hull Street Road on Thursday, July 24, 2026, during a targeted traffic enforcement operation. Officers issued 224 summonses and 29 written warnings for traffic violations, with a focus on speeding, reckless driving, red-light running, impaired driving, seat belt use, and mobile device use while driving.

The operation resulted in four arrests: one driver for impaired driving and three individuals with outstanding criminal warrants. One notable violation involved a driver traveling 76 mph in a 45 mph zone, resulting in a reckless driving charge.

The location was selected through Chesterfield Police's community voting program, with approximately 400 residents voting for Hull Street Road among six options during the quarterly traffic enforcement operation. According to Sergeant Kyle Easton, the increased enforcement efforts reflect population growth concentrated around the area. "The uptick in traffic has certainly created more opportunities for enforcement efforts to try and slow people down," Easton said.

Officers encouraged motorists to "buckle up, put devices down, obey posted speed limits and move over for emergency vehicles."
