 ANNOUNCEMENTS

Click it or Ticket Campaign
Kingman Police Department will be participating in the National Click It or Ticket Campaign which will be running from May 20-June 3, 2013.  Enforcement officers will have a zero tolerance approach to seatbelt violations during this time.  In 2011 KPD found 150 seatbelt violation.  That number dropped to 130 in 2012.  It is hopped that the number will be even lower.  The purpose of this campaign is to raise awareness of the seat belt laws in Arizona and minimize the chances of being injured in a crash.

In Arizona, the 497 vehicle occupant (both drivers/passengers) fatalities in 2010, restraints not in use 47% of the time which resulted in 232 deaths.

In 2012, seat belt usage in Arizona reached nearly 82%, an increase of 2% since 2008. The noted increase is attributed partly to the Arizona Governor’s Office of Highway Safety (GOHS) funded statewide enforcement campaigns, enhanced earned media, and extensive outreach support of educational and public awareness activities. Last year the Kingman Police Department issued

Seat belt and child safety seat use have a proven record of significantly reducing the chance of death and injuries of passengers in vehicles involved in traffic accidents.

Arizona is both a secondary and primary enforcement state, those drivers and passengers who choose to not use their seatbelts will be cited when stopped for another violation. However, officers who observe vehicles on the roadway who are in violation the child restraint law can be stopped as a primary violation. In 2012 Arizona law changed for passengers between the ages of five and eight and who are not more than four feet nine inches tall are required to be in a child restraint system.

The purpose of the campaign is for the Kingman Police Department to engage in aggressive traffic enforcement with a "zero tolerance" approach to seat belt and child safety violations.

Coffee with Cops
Coffee with Cops is a community outreach program. KPD holds these events at different times and locations throughout the city on a quarterly basis. The events are advertised and posted, inviting anyone in the community to come and share a cup of coffee with members of the department. The idea is to make ourselves more accessible to the general public for questions and comments. The Kingman Public Safety Mobile Command Post is usually the meeting point and makes the event easier to find.

The next Coffee with Cops event has not been scheduled at this time.
