Traffic Police

The Traffic Police are a police unit specialized in traffic law enforcement. Traffic control and traffic direction are the main tasks of the Traffic Police. Traffic control is an attempt to solve the problem of a human survival on the roads in our mechanical and electronic era. The basic purpose of the Police Traffic Control Unit is to protect road users. The control includes the protection of all road users against each other and even the individual road user against himself. This kind of protection demands from the Traffic Police particular knowledge of different sciences, special analysis methods as well as planning police road safety process. Special education and training programs, special police tactics and police control devices are also necessary for providing traffic safety.

The Traffic Police are responsible for regulation of traffic flow, traffic safety, parking control, traffic enforcement, accident investigations, accident prevention, etc. Special Traffic Police Stations implement the function of traffic control on motorways and on highways. The police want to obtain better results in decreasing traffic accidents causes and decreasing the heaviness of traffic accidents consequences. The second aim refers to police controlling over using of the safety belts.

Speed is one of the main problems on roads and law enforcement has the power to reduce it. This can have two effects. First, there is a preventive effect: passing drivers notice enforcement activities and most of them will slow down when seeing a police patrol. Second, there is a repressive effect for detected offenders; they either receive a warning or a speeding ticket.

Police surveillance is therefore an important tool in accident contra measures. The probability of police detection of most violations is low. But the increasing of police control activities has had a positive influence on road safety circumstances. Total safety on roads is a great illusion, but better safety is a realistic desire and expectation.
