To reduce the number of persons killed and injured in traffic crashes involving alcohol and other primary
collision factors, "best practice" strategies will be conducted. The funded strategies may include: DUI
checkpoints, DUI saturation patrols, warrant service operations, stakeout operations, a "HOT Sheet" program,
educational presentations, and court stings. The program may also concentrate on speed, distracted driving, seat
belt enforcement, operations at intersections with disproportionate numbers of traffic crashes, and special
enforcement operations encouraging motorcycle safety. These strategies are designed to earn media attention
thus enhancing the overall deterrent effect.

. PROBLEM STATEMENT
In 2012, California's traffic fatalities increased 1.5 percent (2,816 vs. 2,857) — still one of the lowest levels
since the federal government began recording traffic fatalities in 1975. California 2011 Mileage Death Rate
(MDR) — fatalities per 100 million miles traveled — is 0.88, and marks the fourth time California has been
below 1.0. California is much better than the national 1.11 MDR.
Alcohol -impaired driving fatalities (fatalities in crashes involving a driver or motorcycle rider (operator)
with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08 grams per deciliter (g/dL) or greater) increased from 774
in 2011 to 802 in 2012. As a percent of total fatalities, alcohol -impaired driving fatalities increased from 27
percent in 2011 to 28 percent in 2012. This number has remained virtually unchanged in the past three
years. California is better than the national average of 31 percent.
In 2012 OTS commissioned an observational survey of cell phone use by drivers within the state, looking
for hand-held and hands -free talking as well as texting and other use of mobile devices while driving. The
overall rate was 7.4% percent of drivers on the road using cell phones at any given daylight time. Due to the
difficulties in observing all cell phone use while driving, the actual percentage is thought to be higher. In
2013, nearly 70% of California drivers surveyed said they had been hit or nearly hit by a driver who was
talking or texting on a cell phone. Nationally in 2012, 3,328 people were killed and 421,000 were injured in
distraction -affected crashes.
The problem of drugged driving continues to rise. Based on data from the National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration, 38 percent of all drivers who were killed in motor vehicle crashes in California in 2012
tested positive for legal and/or illegal drugs, a percentage that has been increasing since 2006.
Motorcycle fatalities again increased 4.2 percent from 415 in 2011 to 435 in 2012. The percentage of motorcycle
operators killed with a BAC of 0.08 or greater increased from 22 percent in 2011 to 23 percent in 2012.
The National City Police Department has seen a dramatic increase in DUI related arrests. In 2013 there were
166 DUI related arrests. In 2014 the arrest rate rose to 209, an increase of 26%. I believe this is a direct
correlation to the additional resources put on the street to enforce DUI laws. The resources include the DUI
Checkpoints as well as the DUI saturation patrol. The OTS grant enabled the National City Police Depart to
put additional officers on the street to combat the problem of DUI drivers. This resulted in the additional
arrests of DUI drivers and enhanced the safety of the community. Since the OTS Grant PT1560 began in
October 2014, officers from the National City Police Department have made over 22 DUI arrests during the
roving DUI patrols as well as checkpoints.
In addition the OTS grant targeting `Primary Collision Factors' or PCF as well as the Distracted Driver
enforcement has led to a drastic decrease in collisions. Total collisions in 2013 were 367 and reduced to
301, an 18% decrease. I also believe this is in direct correlation to increased traffic enforcement as allowed
by the OTS grant in order to place more police officers on the street looking for drivers who are distracted
and driving negligent. It should be noted there were an additional 14 DUI arrest by officers conducting
`PCF' enforcement.

According the National City Police Department's Crime Analysis Unit there were 254 injury collisions in
2013 with 266 people being injured during those collisions. There were also two fatality collisions in 2013.
Of the 254 injury collisions, 22 of the injury collisions were a result of DUI being thew primary collision
factor. This is 8.6% of the injury collisions were a result of DUI, which shows the need for increased DUI
enforcement.

occur during any Avoid campaign; and reporting your agency's DUI arrests & DUI fatality

NOTE: Nothing in this "agreement" shall be interpreted as a requirement, formal or informal, that a

goals and objectives hereunder.
NOTE: To enhance the overall deterrent effect and promote high visibility, it is recommended the
grantee issue an advance press release for each checkpoint operation. For combination DUUDL
checkpoints, departments should issue press releases that mention DL's will be checked at the DUI/DL
checkpoint. Signs for DUI/DL checkpoint operations should read "DUI/Driver 's License Checkpoint
Ahead" OTS does not fund or support independent DL checkpoints. Only on an exception basis and
with OTS pre -approval will OTS fund checkpoint operations that begin prior to 1800 hours.
3. METHOD OF PROCEDURE

outlined in the objectives section.
• All training needed to implement the program should be conducted this quarter.
• All grant related purchases needed to implement the program should be made this quarter.
• In order to develop/maintain the "Hot Sheets," research will be conducted to identify the "worst of
the worst" repeat DUI offenders with a suspended or revoked license as a result of DUI convictions;
The Hot Sheets may include the driver's name, last known address, DOB, description, current license
status, and the number of times suspended or revoked for DUI. Hot Sheets should be updated and
distributed to traffic and patrol officers at least monthly.
• Implementation of the STEP grant activities will be accomplished by deploying personnel at high
collision locations.
Media Requirements
• Issue a press release announcing the kick-off of the grant by November 15. The kick-off press
