(AP) - New York state officials say police will be cracking down on speeders over the next week.  The Governor's Traffic Safety Committee says agencies around the state will conduct a crackdown on speeding through Wednesday.

The Speed Awareness Week campaign includes high-profile enforcement activity along with public service messages.

An analysis from the University at Albany's Rockefeller College shows fatal crashes in New York caused by speeding increased during the summer, with many occurring between noon and 6 p.m.
