Henderson Police
Patrol Division
Traffic Unit - Field Services
Field Services has eight assigned officers and one sergeant. The officers in
this detail focus enforcement efforts on the high traffic/congested areas and
those areas with our highest percentage of accidents. Speed enforcement is a top
priority for this detail as it is a correlating factor in the majority of
accidents and increases the likelihood of injury or death.
Below are the statistics showing the relationship between enforcement and
accident reduction over the past 5 years.
