SPECIALIZED UNITS

The Traffic Enforcement Unit (TEU) is comprised of 6 police officers who are primarily responsible for enforcing both state traffic laws and local traffic ordinances in an effort to reduce traffic collisions and traffic related fatalities in the City of Rock Hill.

This unit focuses its enforcement efforts on aggressive driving that could likely result in crashes, impaired driving offenses and occupant restraint violations. The TEU officers also actively work with the community to provide education and awareness in the area of traffic safety. TEU officers also respond to community complaints regarding traffic safety concerns and dedicate enforcement efforts toward intersections identified as having high numbers of collisions. The Rock Hill Police Department is actively involved with the South Carolina Law Enforcement Network and the TEU attends all events related to this effort. The overall purpose of the TEU is to create safer roadways for motorists, cyclists and pedestrians.
