Edwardsville Police Announce Results of Memorial Day Enforcement Campaign

EDWARDSVILLE – The Edwardsville Police Department issued numerous citations and made one impaired driving arrest as part of the recently concluded Memorial Day enforcement campaign. This effort took place from May 15-26, 2026 in addition to the department’s normal duties.

This annual campaign is aimed at increasing seat belt use and keeping roads safe during one of the busiest travel periods of the year. It resulted in one impaired driving arrest, six speeding citations, four seat belt citations and two citations for other infractions.

"One of our priorities during major holidays is ensuring that everyone reaches their destination safely," said Lt. Matt Senci. "While the campaign has wrapped up, our commitment to traffic safety remains a daily mission. We remind all drivers to buckle up, slow down, and always drive sober."

The “Click It or Ticket” initiative is funded with federal highway safety funds administered by the Illinois Department of Transportation. For more information on safe driving practices, visit: ItsNotaGameIllinois.com.
