The Traffic Safety Deputies perform traffic law enforcement services predominantly
in rural and non-incorporated areas of the precinct. Their duties include
enforcement of motor vehicle laws, rendering first aid and assisting other
law enforcement agencies. The Traffic Safety Division was created in 1992
at the request of numerous residents within the precinct having concerns
of the traffic in their neighborhoods and on the Farm to Market Roads.
Constable Elkins ensures each deputy is
trained thoroughly in traffic enforcement and patrol procedures
prior to assignment in the traffic safety division. The deputies
assigned in this division also work in the rural areas on
trash and rubbish enforcement. In 2004 the division is credited
with 6530 pounds of trash along our roadways being picked
up and hauled to the North Texas Refuse Center by the individuals
responsible for the dumping.
