Press Conference Advisory
Assemblymember Krekorian Fights to Stop Dangerous Speeding Drivers
Fate of bill to take the worst speeders off our streets to be decided
by key Senate Committee
Assemblymember Paul Krekorian will conduct a press conference to discuss
his legislation, AB 2669, that will help to rid our streets of drivers
who are among the greatest dangers to the lives of our families -- those
who repeatedly commit gross violations of speed limits.
Assemblymember Krekorian introduced AB 2669 is in response to the many
serious accidents in our community that have been caused by reckless
speeding, including the tragic death of Elizabeth Sandoval in Glendale
last year. Under this legislation, drivers who speed in excess of 26
miles over the posted speed limit on city streets will be penalized with
an extra violation point on their driving record. As a result, these
serial gross violators will lose their driving licenses twice as quickly
as under current law, making our streets safer for law-abiding drivers
and pedestrians.
AB 2669 passed the Assembly with overwhelming bipartisan support. It is
currently before the Senate Appropriations Committee, which will act
next week to allow the bill to proceed to a vote of the full Senate.
WHEN: Thursday, July 31, 2008
10:00 am
WHERE: Glendale Police Department
131 North Isabel Street
Glendale, CA 91206
WHO: Assemblymember Paul Krekorian together with
Glendale Police Chief Randy Adams, Burbank Police Chief Tim Stehr, Mr.
Mauricio Sandoval (brother of Elizabeth Sandoval) and other members of
law enforcement.
Assemblymember Paul Krekorian (D-Burbank) represents the cities of
Burbank and Glendale, and the Los Angeles communities of Atwater
Village, Los Feliz, North Hollywood, Silver Lake, Toluca Lake, Valley
Glen, Valley Village and Van Nuys.
