Polish law enforcement has conducted various regional operations focused on public safety, traffic enforcement, and the prevention of vandalism. Initial efforts included addressing agricultural sabotage in Radziejów County, where police used drones and undercover patrols to protect corn harvests. Authorities also worked to disrupt hooligan confrontations in the Łódź Voivodeship and implemented ‘Safe Pedestrian’ initiatives to monitor driver behavior. Subsequent operations expanded on traffic and public order enforcement. In the Kujawsko-Pomorskie region, a nationwide speed enforcement campaign titled ‘Prędkość’ resulted in thousands of identified violations. Additionally, police utilized drones to monitor railway crossings in Ostrołęka and Radom, while municipal guards in Toruń reported high volumes of incidents involving alcohol consumption, vandalism, and drug offenses. Most recently, as part of the European ROADPOL Safety Days initiative, police conducted widespread traffic enforcement under the codename ‘Speed’ to support the ‘Vision Zero’ goal. From September 16 to 22, 2026, the campaign intensified efforts across Poland and Lithuania. In Poland, enforcement focused on high-speed violations, pedestrian safety, and the behavior of cyclists and electric scooter riders. In Lower Silesia, over 1,600 speeding offenses were identified, leading to 14 drivers losing their licenses for exceeding limits by more than 50 km/h. Other regional reports from Bełchatów, Mielec, and Gliwice also highlighted numerous fines and license revocations. In Lithuania, the ~~Kujawsko-Pomorskie region, authorities inspected 2,146 vehicles, uncovering 1,863 instances of speeding.~~ campaign placed a specific emphasis on pedestrian safety through increased controls in high-traffic areas. Following a fatal collision in Sokolniki Suche, specific focus was placed on railway crossing safety. In Ostrołęka, drone monitoring resulted in 25 fines for failing to stop at STOP signs, while in Podkarpacie, officers observed motorists and pedestrians ignoring red signals. In response to these safety concerns, the Polish government has also introduced a legislative project to toughen penalties for railway crossing violations, which may include three-month license suspensions. From September 16 to 22, 2026, the ROADPOL Safety Days campaign intensified these efforts across Poland and Lithuania. In Poland, enforcement focused on high-speed violations, pedestrian safety, and the behavior of cyclists and electric scooter riders. Regional actions targeted illegal overtaking, driving under the influence, and the misuse of electric micro-mobility devices.
