The operation will focus on drivers failing to yield the right of way to pedestrians in the crosswalk. Police will use a decoy pedestrian at the intersection. Potential violations include failure to stop and remain stopped for a pedestrian in a marked or unmarked crosswalk and passing a stopped vehicle at a marked or unmarked crosswalk. Both violations carry a fine of $260. Every intersection, regardless of whether it is marked, is considered a crosswalk, police said. Oregon laws require drivers to stop and remain stopped if a pedestrian is walking in their lane of traffic or the lane adjacent, on both single- and multi-lane roadways. Oregon law also prohibits passing a stopped vehicle at a marked or unmarked crosswalk at an intersection if the vehicle is stopped to permit a pedestrian to cross the roadway. For more information, call Medford police Sgt. Don Lane at 541-774-2292.
