The program targets three major traffic safety priorities: occupant <br />protection, impaired driving and speeding. In the area of impaired driving <br />enforcement, the Virginia Law Enforcement Challenge will recognize outstanding <br />efforts that create general enforcement, both during brief periods of heightened <br />enforcement and on a sustained basis throughout the year. The Virginia Law <br />Enforcement Challenge recognizes agencies that have innovative speed <br />management programs. The Virginia Law Enforcement Challenge allows law <br />enforcement agencies to set comprehensive goals, to strive to reach new heights, to <br />share their experiences with others, and to be recognized for their traffic safety <br />accomplishments. The Martinsville Police Dept was awarded Rookie of the Year <br />and placed 1 st in our division. Mr. Donald Allen, Law Enforcement Liaison, <br />Virginia Highway Safety Office, will be at the meeting to make the presentation. <br /> <br />Attachments: <br /> <br />Recommendations: <br />
