Question:

With the city council passing an ordinance prohibiting texting while driving, I would like to know how many citations have been issued by LPD to date?

Answer:

"The ordinance that prohibits texting while driving is an attempt to further limit distracted driving. The city has also incorporated distracted driving behaviors into the careless driving ordinance. The ordinance was made effective on March 9, 2016 and to date, no citations have been issued for texting while driving.

Ask the City Of Laramie is your chance to send the city that burning question that you have always wondered about such as: “How can I get a city parking permit?” or “Why did my water usage rates go through the roof?”

Please note that the City of Laramie will answer as many questions as possible at their discretion.
