April 4-8 was a light stretch far the Westbrook Police, at least as traffic-related crimes were concerned. After posting 80 and 108 traffic summons* in the American Journal's 'Westbrook Police Notes' section in the last two weeks, respectively, this week's batch included only 27 traffic-related improprieties.
