Hialeah launches police unit to target aggressive driving

Hialeah has launched a police unit to target aggressive driving on the city's streets.

The five-member team will look for speeding, red-light running and dangerous lane changes, and work to prevent impaired driving and crashes.

Low-profile police vehicles will help officers spot risky behavior by drivers who may not realize police are nearby.

The team began patrolling on October 19, and city leaders announced the initiative the next day.

A seized Corvette shown at the event is for community and safety education, not for the unit's street patrols.

The plan combines enforcement with public education, aiming to prevent crashes and keep residents safe.
