Monrovia Police Department Gets Traffic-Safety Grant
Monrovia Police Department has been awarded a $72,000 grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) for a year-long program of special enforcements and public awareness efforts to prevent traffic related deaths and injuries. Monrovia Police Department will use the funding as part of the city's ongoing commitment to keep our roadways safe and improve the quality of life through both enforcement and education.
"Our goal is to maintain Monrovia's status of having zero traffic related fatalities," says Lieutenant Robert Wilken, Traffic Safety Coordinator for the Monrovia Police Department.
After falling to a ten year low in 2010, the number of persons killed has climbed nearly 17% across the state with 3,176 killed in 2015 according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Particularly alarming is the six year rise in pedestrian and bicycle fatalities, along with the growing dangers of distracting technologies, and the emergence of drug-impaired driving as a major problem. This grant funding will provide opportunities to combat these and other devastating problems such as drunk driving, speeding and crashes at intersections.
"Years of research tell us that enforcement and education work best jointly to combat unsafe driving," said OTS Director Rhonda Craft. "This grant brings both tactics together, with the Office of Traffic Safety and the Monrovia Police Department working in concert to help keep the streets and highways safe across Monrovia and the state." Activities that the grant will fund include:
• Educational presentations • DUI checkpoints • DUI saturation patrols • Bicycle and pedestrian safety enforcement • Distracted driving enforcement • Seat belt and child safety seat enforcement • Speed, red light, and stop sign enforcement • Warrant service operations targeting multiple DUI offenders • Compilation of DUI "Hot Sheets," identifying worst-of-the-worst DUI offenders • Specialized DUI and drugged driving training such as Standardized Field Sobriety Testing (SFST), Advanced Roadside Impaired Driving Enforcement (ARIDE), and Drug Recognition Evaluator (DRE) • Court "sting" operations to cite individuals driving from DUI court after ignoring their license suspension or revocation • Stakeout operations to observe the "worst-of-the-worst" repeat DUI offender probationers with suspended or revoked driver licenses
Funding for this program is from the California Office of Traffic Safety through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
