RURAL INITIATIVES FOR TRAFFIC SAFETY: A GUIDE TO THE OFFICE OF SHERIFF AND OTHER LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS IN RURAL COMMUNITIES
This guide contains information designed to deal with the many issues, problems and concerns of sheriffs and other law enforcement administrators who are directly responsible for the enforcement of traffic laws and regulations on rural highways within their jurisdictions. It provides law enforcement officials with practical approaches for combating the myths which sometimes stymie the level of active traffic law enforcement needed. It also identifies new enforcement techniques or strategies that can easily be incorporated into existing enforcement programs, without the need for additional personnel, and provides new ideas for expanding current programs to make them more budget friendly. The four chapters cover (I) initiatives for traffic enforcement programs, (II) program planning, (III) program implementation, and (IV) building community support for traffic safety programs.
