Assignment:

Part I.  Choose a piece of speed enforcement technology and based on your research, write a 400- to 500-word proposal to your department chief and city council outlining why they should invest in that piece of equipment. Be sure to address the specific speed enforcement device features and the impact this investment will have on the community. At least two sources should be cited.

Part II.  As a patrol officer with your city, you have been assigned to a directed patrol to reduce speeding in a school zone on Pleasant Street. On the south end of the school is the entrance driveway, on the north end of the property is the exit driveway. Across the street from the school are private residential homes. To the south of the school is a commercial building with a large parking lot along the roadside. To the north of the property is a line of evergreen trees that are at least 8 feet tall. Pleasant Street is a flat grade in front of the school and travels downhill as you drive south toward the commercial building. Your new patrol captain has asked you to assess the location and provide him with a brief memo (300-500 words) including whether you will use a RADAR or LASER and why. What time of day you plan to conduct your enforcement activity and why. What hazards and types of interference might be involved in utilizing your speed detection devices in conducting your motor vehicle stops.

Part III.  Using 2-3 additional sources of information, write a 400- to 500-word essay discussing the different types of automated enforcement including how they work and their effectiveness. Then address related controversies and legal issues using current examples.
