HELP US KEEP NEW HAVEN STREETS SAFE!
DIRT BIKES, ALL-TERRAIN VEHICLES AND UNREGISTERED VEHICLES ARE ILLEGAL IN NEW HAVEN. BY KEEPING THESE VEHICLES OFF THE ROAD WE CAN ENJOY SAFER STREETS FOR EVERYONE.
HERE’S HOW YOU CAN HELP:

1. The best way for us to confiscate these illegal vehicles is when they are parked or garaged. When you see a dirt bike or an ATV, call the anonymous Traffic Safety Hotline! A hot-line has been set up for residents to call and provide anonymous information about any type of traffic violation witnessed. If you see a dirt bike or an ATV out on the street, or if you witness any type of unsafe traffic behavior please call 946-6956 and give us information 24 hours a day. If you wish to speak to someone, you can leave your phone number and request a callback. You can also email us at TrafficSafety@newhavenct.net. Your name and contact information will remain confidential.
2. Make sure your children and other children know not to ride dirt bikes or ATVs on the street.
3. Wear a helmet when you’re out on a bicycle or motorcycle. Encourage your family and friends to do the same!
4. Follow traffic signs, adhere to the speed limit and always stop at a Stop Sign.
