Abstract:The combination of increased demands on Oregon’s transportation system and restricted resources in law enforcement led the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) to investigate the relationship between motorists’ speeds and law enforcement levels. If an optimum level of law enforcement could be identified that reduces the number of motorists exceeding the posted speed, the end result could be a more efficient deployment of scarce law enforcement resources.
The main objective of this project was to evaluate different levels of law enforcement to determine if one particular pattern was more effective than others in controlling motorists’ speeds.
