Police Traffic Services Handbook for Governor's Highway Safety Representatives

A. G. Johnson / N. Darwick / R. Sostkowskii / F. Robertson / A. Smith

The publication is prepared for State Highway Safety Administrators, to provide them with a grounding in Police Traffic Services. It is not designed for the use of police executives or students of police administration. The handbook provides the highway safety planner with a conceptualization of the purpose, goals, and objectives of a police traffic services program. It is meant to serve as a basic frame of reference for the planner relative to program definition, enforcement techniques and countermeasures, and should be of considerable value to him in finding ways to upgrade the quality and level of Police Traffic Services. Fundamentals of police organization and management are treated briefly but adquately enough to give the uninitiated a feel for the quasi-military environment within which traffic law enforcement functions operate. The chapter on Evaluation and Assessment may be of particular value to Highway Safety Administrators, in that it is applicable to all disciplines and not only to the function of Police Traffic Services.
