A Reminder About Pedestrian Safety from the Napa Police DepartmentWith several recent accidents involving pedestrians, the Napa Police Department wants to remind everyone of a few simple things:
- Please use crosswalks.
- Drivers, please stop for pedestrians in those crosswalks
- California Law mandates that if you are involved in an auto accident, you must STOP! Leaving the scene of a collision with property damage or injury turns a civil matter into a criminal matter that could result in prison. Why risk it?
- Drivers please slow down and pay attention. Avoid distracted driving.
We all share these roads, let’s do our best to keep them safe for all of us.

3. All items must be placed in the cart.
4. When your cart is full, set it out by 6am on your service day.
