SEATTLE – At a public ceremony over the weekend in Port Orchard, the Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office, Washington Traffic Safety Commission (WTSC), and Subaru unveiled their latest effort in working together to enhance traffic safety. With assistance from WTSC, the Peninsula Subaru Dealership and the Subaru Northwest Region, the Sheriff’s Office put into service a brand new 2006 Subaru Legacy 2.5 GT Sedan, which will be used as an unmarked traffic safety enforcement vehicle. The primary role of the vehicle will be to conduct school zone safety enforcement and to combat aggressive driving. The new vehicle has already been properly outfitted with the necessary emergency and police related equipment installed by the technicians from Kitsap County Public Works. The Subaru Legacy received the “Top Safety Pick Gold” award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety for its performance in crash tests that measure the ability to protect occupants in front, side, and rear impact crashes. Subaru Legacy safety features include Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive coupled with its unique boxer engine, 4-wheel long-travel independent suspension, and 4-channel/4-sensor anti-lock braking system.
