Traffic Tech #83: Traffic Enforcement Saving Lives and Combating Crime

The brochure can be used by law enforcement executives and elected public officials to show the relationship between traffic enforcement, crime, and public safety. For example, law enforcement officers who arrest drunk or drugged drivers prevent other deaths, injuries and violent crimes. In 1993, 17,461 people died in alcohol-related traffic crashes; 56% of inmates jailed for violent crimes were drinking or using drugs when they committed their crime; and 13% of inmates committed offenses to get money for drugs. This brochure will help show how traffic enforcement can help in the fight against crime.
