About the Unit
The Humble Police Department Traffic Enforcement Unit was formed to respond to an ever increasing number of traffic related problems throughout the city. These problems consisted of traffic congestion, aggressive and reckless drivers, auto pedestrian accidents, and an increased number of traffic-related fatalities primarily caused by vehicle crashes. The Traffic Enforcement Unit gives the department a very useful tool to effectively address various traffic safety issues, while saving lives and protecting property.
The Traffic Enforcement Unit is currently comprised of six officers and one sergeant. Their duty hours vary according to the traffic enforcement needs throughout the city. All members of the unit are certified and highly trained in the areas of traffic enforcement, accident reconstruction and impaired driver recognition. In addition to this, every officer assigned to this specialty unit is a member of TDCAA (Texas District & County Attorneys Association), TAARS (Texas Association of Accident Reconstruction Specialists), and ARC (Accident Reconstruction Community).
The Traffic Enforcement Unit utilizes the latest in technology to perform their duties such as VERICOM – VC4000 (which measures and computes a vehicle’s velocity, performance, and braking capability), CDRS (Crash Data Retrieval System), Total Station (crash reconstruction technology) along with VISTA FX Traffic Accident Reconstruction Animation Simulation. The Traffic Enforcement Unit recently began utilizing the Pix4D Mapping software for Crash Investigations and assists in other investigations as needed. The Traffic Enforcement Unit currently has 6 drones that are utilized for crash investigations, search and rescue missions and any other situations as needed.
The Traffic Enforcement Unit is responsible for all investigations related to traffic fatalities. The unit is responsible for the completion of all crash reports, crash scene diagrams, court proceedings, attendance at all autopsies that involve traffic-related deaths, along with the investigations into all unnatural deaths due to motor vehicle crashes.
In addition, the Traffic Enforcement Unit works closely with the City of Humble Street Department and the Texas Department of Transportation in assessing and assisting in the orderly flow of traffic throughout the city. All traffic related complaints may be routed to the Humble Police Department Traffic Enforcement Unit at (281) 446-7127 Ext 1110 and directed to Sergeant Jack Burt.
