The major drop in traffic stops and the rise in patrol checks can be attributed to <br />several factors. One absolute is the absence of the traffic unit in 2024; however, other <br />contributing factors can be directly related to staffing, experience levels of officers, and the <br />significant number of trainees in 2024. Patrol checks were utilized in 2024 as a way to <br />document directed and focused patrol checks at specific locations. The increase in the number <br />of patrol checks also includes activity by the volunteers and three cadets. <br /> <br />Table 4 below outlines the number of traffic stops and dispositions of the stops, parking <br />citations and collision data. <br /> <br />Table 4 - Traffic Data <br /> 2021 2022 2023 2024 <br />Traffic Stops 13048 11727 9345 5532 <br />Moving/Mechanical <br />Citations 3417 1583 1310 624 <br />Parking Citations 1238 1030 1163 1090 <br />Courtesy Citations 1508 948 752 421 <br />Total Citations 6163 3561 3225 2135 <br />Non-Injury Collisions 147 147 153 137 <br />Injury Collisions 143 173 216 186 <br />Page 178 of 226
