DE PERE, WI (WTAQ) – “Operation Frogger” isn’t the newest game at the arcade, but rather an effort from the city of De Pere to keep their streets safer.
The city-wide operation, which focuses on crosswalk safety, was launched on Wednesday.
“Stuff happens too quick, you know we’re on our phones, we’re not paying attention and by law when a pedestrian is crossing, by law, we have to yield to them,” says De Pere Community Resource Officer, Jedd Bradley.
Bradley says they are trying to limit preventable incidents and added that motorists could be fined if they fail to yield to a pedestrian.
