North Las Vegas Police join “Joining Forces” Speed checks statewide July 1–20

Nevada’s statewide Joining Forces speeding enforcement window is scheduled for July 1–20, 2026, and the North Las Vegas Police Department is listed as a participating agency for 2026. During the campaign, officers are expected to run high-visibility patrols targeting drivers who exceed posted speed limits or travel too fast for roadway, traffic, or weather conditions.

For North Las Vegas residents, that means the next two-and-a-half weeks aren’t just “watch for a patrol” time—they’re a plan-ahead window to reduce your risk and protect schoolchildren, construction crews, and other drivers as conditions change.

What the “SPEED” part targets

Officials describe speeding as more than just going faster than the posted limit. The campaign framing includes driving too fast for conditions—such as during poor weather or other hazardous road conditions—so the safest move is to slow down when the drive isn’t ideal.

When it runs in 2026

According to Nevada’s OTS schedule for the 2026 Joining Forces events, the “SPEED” enforcement window is July 1 through July 20, 2026. The state’s OTS program materials also list North Las Vegas Police Department as a 2026 participating agency.

Resident checklist: what to do during July 1–20

During the Joining Forces SPEED period, the North Las Vegas Police Department’s reminders focus on:

• Obey posted speed limits.
• Slow down during poor weather, heavy traffic, school zones, and construction areas.
• Allow extra travel time rather than rushing.
• Leave a safe following distance between vehicles.
• Remember that higher speeds reduce reaction time and can increase crash severity.

Where to confirm the schedule
