Traffic Enforcement Unit

The Traffic Enforcement Team is a unit of the Operations Division. The primary goal of the team is to encourage traffic safety through enforcement of Lincoln's traffic ordinances. The six-member unit is responsible for traffic enforcement throughout the city and presenting traffic safety presentations to various community groups.

During a normal year the Traffic Unit issues approximately 60% of the total number of speeding citations department-wide. In addition, they arrest an average of 15% of the total number of alcohol and/or drug impaired drivers. The unit is also responsible for all of the department training regarding accident investigation, radar certification, and DWI enforcement.

As one of many resources, the Unit maintains a School/Community Speed Display. The display is a portable radar display that is used to encourage speed compliance in a targeted area. The display is available to individuals, neighborhood associations, and school groups after a short training orientation.
