Krauss said the collision stats will prompt Rohnert Park police to increase traffic enforcement, especially at No. 1 RPX at Commerce.

Among other highlights of the traffic stats:

–Most collisions in the city occur during high traffic hours, such as before and after work.

–Wednesday has the highest number of collisions.

–No. 1 cause of collisions is speeding, followed by unsafe turns, DUI, following too closely and unsafe backing.

–From 2003 to 2010 there was a decrease in collisions, which Krauss attributed to traffic awareness programs and traffic enforcement, particularly with the department’s addition of a second motorcycle officer.

–Top citations in 2010: Speeding with 200, running stop signs at 167, failure to obey signs at 150 (no left turn violations are big), cell phone use at 97 and red lights at 41.
