The California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) and California Highway Patrol have awarded the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department’s Traffic Services Detail with 1st Place Honors for overall traffic safety efforts through a comprehensive submission by Detective Daniel A. Dail.
California’s law enforcement community must set ambitious goals for traffic safety enforcement and education. Law Enforcement officers have unprecedented responsibilities to prevent traffic fatalities, which now occur at the rate of one every two hours, to reduce the number of serious injuries resulting from traffic collisions, and to positively impact the spiraling emergency services and health care costs.
The California Law Enforcement Challenge program allows law enforcement agencies to set comprehensive goals, to strive to reach new heights in traffic safety, to share their experiences with others, and to be recognized for their traffic safety accomplishments; in short, to make a difference in the communities their officers serve each day. Saving lives and reducing the frequency and severity of injuries are the true rewards of law enforcement’s efforts.
Agencies that enter the California Law Enforcement Challenge are evaluated on the following categories: Policy Statements on Traffic Safety Programs, Officer Training, Public Information and Education, Enforcement Activities, Effectiveness, Incentives & Recognition & Quality of Submission.
Traffic crashes, fatalities and injuries are serious issues facing every community in California. Law enforcement officials have taken it upon themselves in Los Angeles County to address these crucial community concerns. Recognizing the challenging budgets and additional responsibilities in contract cities, OTS and state law enforcement officials appreciate the need to highlight and acknowledge those agencies and individuals that have excelled in efforts to lower deaths and injuries.
