Page 38 - 2022 A Year in Review Final

• When information comes in, such as a citizen complaint, a concentrated

and concerted effort to decrease violations in that area is done by having

C.A.R.E. details and directed patrol officers focus on it. Stats are kept,

seeing how many violations are observed in the targeted area so that

future details can be the most productive. See the C.A.R.E. sheets at the

end of this report for additional details.

• The areas on this list have been shown to be the areas with the most

documented number of accidents. Looking at the information, several

areas had an increase in accidents. This was more than likely caused by

more vehicles on the road returning to post Covid-19 Pandemic activities.
