Question

What are the management risks in traffic law enforcement and identifying, managing, evaluating, and monitoring those risks?

Answer 1

Answer:

Everything in law enforcement is a risk. From the moment you mark on duty until after you mark off city every single action you take is a liability.

The way we manage that (which amounts to tens of millions of incidents and interactions per year) is we try to hire the best officers that are available to us. We have exhaustive hiring processes and extensive training. All of these calls and incidents are highly dynamic and can go from mundane to life threatening in an instant. One single call can save or take a life. That’s why we have a very high level of autonomy. This is not a career field that lends itself to a lot of direct management especially micromanagement. It’s far too complex and far too dynamic to try.
