​Clearfield, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) has placed a radar-controlled speed display board on Route 2018 (Copelin Road) in Decatur Township, Clearfield County. The board is intended to remind drivers to obey the posted speed limit in order to curb speeding, a common type of aggressive driving behavior.

The board is located on Route 2018 between the intersections of Decatur Street and Perks Street. It faces eastbound traffic in a 35 mile per hour zone. It will remain in place until the end of October.

Speeding and other aggressive driving behaviors are among the leading causes of Pennsylvania crashes and fatalities. Other aggressive driving behaviors include running stop signs or red lights, passing illegally, and tailgating.

PennDOT listed aggressive driving behaviors as a factor in 51 percent of crashes in Clearfield County in 2023.
