The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) estimates that the economic costs to society of speed-related crashes to be $40.4 billion per year. The U.S. Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) released a new National Survey of Speeding Attitudes and Behavior (December 11, 2013)in which nearly half of drivers surveyed say speeding is a problem on our nation's roads, and one in five drivers surveyed admitted, "I try to get where I am going as fast as i can."

This new funding is an ideal source for HPD to obtain additional equipment for patrol and traffic officers. GRANT GOALS Goals serve as the foundation upon which the grant is built. Goals are what you hope to accomplish by implementing a traffic safety grant and represent an end result. Grant goals should be stated in measurable terms(i.e.,a percent reduction),be concise and deal with a specific item,be realistic with a reasonable probability of achievement,and be related to a specific timeframe(a "by"date). Please notate baseline from which the reduction/increase will result. During Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2018, HPD will purchase Speed Detection Equipment in an attempt to reduce the number of speed related fatalities, and to assist with the overall goal and objective of the 2018 Speed Grant of issuing 1,500 or more speeding citations. GRANT OBJECTIVES Objectives are tasks or activities conducted in order to accomplish the grant goal(s) (e.g.,develop permanent fitting stations for child restraints,enforcement activities,educational activities,etc.). Grant objectives should be stated in measurable terms(t e_,a percent reduction,number of training to be held, • • number of roadblocks, eic.), be concise and deal with a specific item, be realistic with a reasonable probability of achievement,and be related to a specific timeframe(a "by"date). Please notate baseline front which the reduction/increase will result. HPD will: 1. Purchase 10 Stalker II Moving radar units for patrol districts for speed enforcement 2. Purchase 20 LTI TruSpeed laser units for patrol districts for speed enforcement METHOD OF EVALUATION Using data gathered throughout the grant period,the grant manager will evaluate(1)how well the stated grant goals and objectives were Occomplished,,and(2)was the grant cost effectiive? #ow:are you going (9.#W.greSgri.g.olypirelect?
