2005 Eastern Region Police Leadership Conference Report “Traffic Enforcement Is Law Enforcement” EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Th e 2005 Eastern Region Police Leadership Conference was the third hosted by the State of New Jersey since 1996. Th e purpose was to present pertinent infor- mation and materials to the lead- ership of law enforcement from the states represented by NHT- SA Eastern Region: New Jersey, New York, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. Th e goal was to provide the latest in- formation from NHTSA as well as to foster new relationships be- tween the highway safety com- munity and police administration from state, county, and local law enforcement agencies.

A conference of this magnitude, targeted to an audience of such high esteem, required bringing in speakers and presenters from law enforcement and traffi c safety agencies from across the country. However, it was also important to utilize local representatives New Jersey state troopers guard a truck where who have demonstrated eff ective use of traffi c safety funding or police confi scated $5.3 million in cash in Cranbury have shown personal dedication Trentonian Photo/BOB CASTELLI Courtesy of Trentonian to this very important issue.

At a time when the nation is at war and priorities for funding are constantly shifting, it has never been more important to mobilize the law enforcement community and provide the well deserved gratitude to those individuals who have carried out the messages of highway safety on a consistent basis. A meeting such as the 2005 Eastern Region Police Leadership Conference could not have happened at a more appropriate time.

After these remarks, he introduced Roberto Rodriguez, Governor’s Representative, Director, New Jer- sey Division of Highway Traffi c Safety. Director Rodriguez thanked his staff and the planning committee for their eff orts in planning the event. Director Rodriguez then went on to explain that Highway Traffi c Safety is reaching places that it’s never been before through the formation of partnerships between law enforcement and communities. Law enforcement is an essential component in saving lives. New Jersey has been successful in reaching underserved communities and can be used as an example nationally. He then went on to thank NHTSA and the Governor’s Highway Safety Association for their support.

An eff ective enforcement tool is the idea of looking be- yond the ticket. One department attributes 40 percent of their drug arrests to traffi c stops.

He then showed how the application of this very same idea, that traffi c fatalities are not acceptable, worked in his state and across the nation.

Additionally, Director McMahon demonstrated, through fi ve specifi c examples, how basic traffi c stops have led to the apprehension of several national and international terrorists. PLENARY SESSION

Special guest Sade Baderinwa, co-anchor for Channel 7 ABC - TV in N.Y.C. gave a heartfelt personal presenta- tion, sharing her own experience with traffi c safety. Ms. Baderinwa, who has held several positions in local televi- sion in the area, began her career as an intern with “Th is Week with David Brinkley.” Ms. Baderinwa shared her personal story about being a victim of a hit and run crash in Hackensack while working on a story.
