Denver Police Shift Focus From Minor Traffic Stops to Public Safety

The Denver Police Department (DPD) is revamping its approach to traffic enforcement. In a new policy implemented on May 1st, officers will prioritize violations that pose a greater threat to safety, like speeding or reckless driving. This means less emphasis on pulling over drivers for minor infractions such as a single broken headlight or expired tags.

The aim? Freeing up officers to tackle more serious crimes and improve overall public safety. It’s not a free pass for scofflaws, though. The policy targets minor infractions that don’t present immediate danger.

This change coincides with a recent Colorado law allowing localities to use automated systems for ticketing traffic violations. These systems, which might involve cameras or radar, could replace some officer-initiated stops for speeding violations.

Community groups are hopeful. They believe this shift will not only make Denver streets safer for everyone (drivers,police, pedestrians) but also reduce the number of potentially tense interactions between police and citizens during traffic stops.

These groups advocate for a multi-pronged approach to safer streets. They recommend expanding the use of automated enforcement alongside the new police policy. Additionally, they believe improved street design with features like bike lanes, crosswalks, and clear signage can help drivers avoid violations altogether.
