OKLAHOMA LAW ENFORCEMENT IS SAVING LIVES, ONE STOP AT A TIME!

The National Law Enforcement Challenge provides law enforcement agencies with an opportunity to make
a significant difference in the communities they serve. The Challenge is a friendly competition between
similar sizes and types of law enforcement agencies that recognizes and rewards the best overall traffic
safety programs in the United States.

The program is designed to strengthen and support traffic enforcement nationwide and targets three major
traffic safety priorities: occupant protection impaired driving, and speeding. Participating agencies are
asked to provide documentation on their agency’s efforts and effectiveness in areas of officer training,
public information, and enforcement to reduce crashes and injuries.

Oklahoma’s law enforcement community must set ambitious goals for traffic safety enforcement and
education. Police officers have unprecedented opportunities to prevent a traffic fatality from occurring at the
rate of one every two hours, to reduce the number of serious injuries resulting from traffic collisions, and to
positively impact the spiraling emergency services and health care costs.

The Oklahoma Law Enforcement Challenge program allows law enforcement agencies to set
comprehensive goals, to strive to reach new heights in traffic safety, to share their experiences with others,
and to be recognized for their traffic safety accomplishments; in short, to make a difference in the
communities their officers serve each day. This competition has no losers - only winners: for saving lives
and reducing the frequency and severity of injuries are the true rewards of law enforcement's effort.

This is Oklahoma’s first year to compete statewide, regionally and nationally. Applications for the
challenge will be available on site for agencies that wish to participate.  For further information contact
OACP at 405-672-1225.
