Exhibit B Multijurisdictional High-Visibility Enforcement Protocols Purpose This protocol is intended to guide Target Zero Managers, Law Enforcement Liaisons, and law enforcement agencies in coordinating multijurisdictional high visibility enforcement (HVE) mobilizations to address impaired driving, distracted driving, speeding, and seat belt use. These mobilizations are funded by federal highway safety grants. Goal The goal of multijurisdictional high-visibility campaigns is to reduce fatal and serious injury collisions through the coordination of: • Publicity addressing increased enforcement, and • Increased contacts and arrests of violators. Method Funding from the Washington Traffic Safety Commission (WTSC) will support multijurisdictional HVE patrol activities to increase the number of officers working on impaired driving, distracted driving, speeding, and occupant protection enforcement. Public education and media will be coordinated by the Target Zero Manager and Law Enforcement Liaison. The law enforcement activity will support the media effort by demonstrating to the public that the media messages are true; i.e., that "extra enforcement patrols (with a particular focus) are going on now" so that the public takes the media messages seriously. The media work will support the police effort by encouraging voluntary compliance with the law. The objective of multijurisdictional HVE patrol activities is to change driver behavior by raising the awareness of increased enforcement. Definitions: • HVE is enforcement of the law in conjunction with publicity that draws the attention of the public to the enforcement activity. • Multijurisdictional enforcement is defined as a minimum of three law enforcement agencies (LEA's) or patrol units participating at a designated date and time, enforcing a specific activity, in a location determined by the local Target Zero Task Force. 16
