Last night, our CPA participants stepped behind the badge for Week 2 of the academy!

The group dove deep into the world of Patrol Operations, learning exactly what our officers experience during their daily shifts. They got an up-close look at the essential gear and technology packed inside a patrol vehicle, and discovered how our officers use this equipment to keep our community safe every single day.

The highlight of the night was a hands-on demonstration where participants got to test out some of the gear themselves and see how it works in real-time!

About one-third of all traffic crash fatalities in the U.S. involve drunk drivers (with BACs at or above .08 g/dL).
