The NLEC is a friendly competition between agencies that is designed to encourage them to address traffic safety issues within their state or jurisdiction with an effective, systematic way that has proven successful in reducing serious injuries and fatalities on roadways.

Department applicants present efforts in four main areas, including speed awareness, impaired driving, occupant protection (seatbelt use) and an additional category that is important within each community. The competition between agencies provides recognition for outstanding departments while still helping every department improve their traffic safety program. All participants evaluate a year’s worth of traffic safety efforts, successes and failures during the process. This gives agencies the information needed to effectively focus their efforts to reduce crashes and concentrate manpower in problem areas, ultimately saving lives in communities across the country.

Howard Hall, Chief of Police in Roanoke County Virginia and NLEC Committee Chair states that, "The format of the National Law Enforcement Challenge helps us make our enforcement, our education efforts and everything we do around traffic safety focused on what's important." The NLEC encourages new agencies to get involved to improve their traffic safety program, be recognized for their lifesaving work and share successful techniques and polices with other agencies.

The application deadline is 1 May, with a more user-friendly application process than in previous years. This process, along with additional resources to help departments complete their application, will all be explained during the LTI and NLEC co-hosted webinar.
