Drivers were slammed with a record number of traffic tickets last year after police stepped up their efforts to combat dangerous driving patterns in certain areas of town.

Police issued 7,512 tickets in 2008, a more than 2,000 ticket increase from the previous year and an eight-year high for the town, according to Sgt. Timothy Berry, who heads the traffic section of the police department.
