1. PROBLEM STATEMENT
GRANT NUMBER
PT19106
Problem Statement:
Traffic collisions are on the rise across the United States at rate of about 6%. The City of San Bernardino has
experienced a large increase in fatalities. Between the years of 2009-2013, the city had an average of 14.8 fatalities at a
rate of 7.4 per 100,000. In the following years of 2014-2017 there was a sudden increase in fatalities to 35 fatalities at a
rate of 17.5 per 100,000. With 40 fatalities in 2017, the rate. increased again to 20 fatalities per 100,000.
Using California OTS ranking information, San Bernardino was ranked 5/57 cities. The Liljegren Law Group
conducted a study entitled California's "Most Dangerous and Safest Cities for Drivers" published January 12, 2017.
This study rated San Bernardino number 2 in the state with the number one fatality rate in the state.

Many of our fatalities are pedestrian related and constituted 32.5% of fatalities in 2017 and 22.55% were vehicle to
vehicle fatalities. Many of these vehicle and pedestrian fatalities are alcohol related. The San Bernardino Police
department utilized a stepped up campaign in 2017 utilizing the educational slogan of "Cross Like Your Life Depends
On It" and enforcement action funded by CA OTS. About 60,000 people were impacted by this educational Campaign.
Most of the people impacted in the campaign were students, as a result of a partnership between the San Bernardino
Police Department and the San Bernardino City Unified School District. In the last quarter of 2017, only one pedestrian
fatality occurred, giving hope that the extra educational/enforcement attention provided by CA OTS funds will reduce
fatalities.
One of the major contributors to our crime and traffic issues is a lack of manpower. In 2012 the City of San Bernardino
filed for bankruptcy protection. Since that time our city has been struggling to balance the budget. The City Attorneys
submitted a Plan of Adjustment, which has been accepted bV the Judge handling our case as recently as December
9/5/2018 9:12:40 AM Page 4 of 18
2016. Hiring has been in full swing to bring staffing levels up to meet the needs of the city.
In December 2010 the police department staffed about 350 sworn officers. By 2012 the San Bernardino Police
Department staffed slightly over 300 sworn personnel, with numbers falling precipitously. As of December 2017 the
department is fielding about 250 officers. The police department is currently authorized to have 260 sworn personnel.
The San Bernardino Police Department has many new hires coming on board, but manpower for proactive field
deployment is scarce, unless overtime is utilized.
At the peak staffing level many years ago, we staffed the Traffic Division with 14 officers. The police administration is
unable to transfer officers out of patrol assignments to put them in this specialty assignment as they are needed to
handle regular calls for service. As a consequence, traffic fatalities in the city were at an all-time high in 2017. It is
imperative that a funding source is obtained to assist with traffic safety and enforcement. The grant monies that we
have been awarded by the Office of Traffic Safety have been extremely beneficial to the residents, businesses, and
visitors of San Bernardino. Grant funds put more officers on the streets for enforcement of traffic laws and educating
the public.
Even though our sworn staffing has taken a substantial cut, San Bernardino police officers continue to arrest impaired
drivers. In 2017, the number of DUI drivers arrested was 317. The traffic detective and the three officers assigned to
the Traffic Division, and one additional patrol officer, successfully earned their "23152" pin in 2016.
In 2017, the San Bernardino Police Department was tasked with investigating 38 fatal traffic collisions, resulting in 40
deaths on our city streets. This is a zero percent increase from the 38 collisions (39 deaths) that we investigated in 2015
which was the highest number of traffic fatalities that we have seen on the streets of San Bernardino in over 20 years.
The same number of collisions (38) occurring in 2015 matched the number (38) in 2017. Two more fatalities occurred
in 2017 for a total of 40 which is a 6% increase. The OTS grant funds have aided in holding steady the increasing (6%)
number of fatalities seen across the United States.
Many of the collision investigations were conducted by Traffic Division personnel, many times during their scheduled
time off. Although alcohol or drugs were confirmed to be a factor in only three (3) of these collisions, there are still
many in which we are awaiting blood results. Seventeen (17) of these fatal traffic investigations were sent to the San
Bernardino County District Attorney's Office for review and possible manslaughter or murder filings due to gross
negligence on the part of the involved drivers. These investigations are time consuming and take the traffic officers off
the street for a substantial amount of time, which also adds to the decrease in our proactive time to enforce traffic laws.

DL's will be checked at the DUI/DL checkpoint. Signs for DUI/DL checkpoints should
read "DUI/Driver's License Checkpoint Ahead." OTS does not fund or support
independent DL checkpoints. Only on an exception basis and with OTS pre -approval will

stopped." Then, subdivision (f) of that section goes on to provide, "A law enforcement officer shall not engage in racial
