According to MSP, Operation Freeway of Love will continue on the Lodge Freeway from downtown Detroit to 8 Mile Road. They will be looking for excessive speeding, seatbelts, following too closely and other aggressive driving behaviors.

They also say they will continue increased presences for Operation Westside on I-96 near Middlebelt Rd. to look for drivers more likely to cause a traffic rash.

On Thursday, police say they made 165 total stops during the first Freeway of Love campaign with more than 150 traffic fines.
