Following a presentation of the IACP policy statement on police traffic management, the activities of the IACP Highway Safety Committee are reviewed in the areas of administration, education, engineering, laws and ordinances, motor vehicle administration, police traffic supervision, records, and research. Next, the IACP highway safety activities from 1900 to 1983 are reviewed. A discussion of citizen reporting programs focuses on citizen reporting of instances where a person was observed driving while intoxicated. The discussion focuses on the programs' formal methods of operation, funding, and results. The value of the use of seatbelts is emphasized in another article, along with a discussion of the Department of Transportation seatbelt campaign and what police officers can do to encourage their use. Another article considers barriers to measures of police traffic services (PTS), impediments to PTS success, the benefits of successful PTS, and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's PTS plan. The role of law enforcement in transportation planning is considered in another article, followed by a description of the computerized traffic records system for directed traffic enforcement. Remaining articles are devoted to how the California Highway Patrol responds to hazardous-materials spills, enforcement and accident prevention in highway construction zones, and the development and management of a rural accident reduction program.
