TO THE MEMBERS OF THE GEORGIA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY:
Each of you should be extremely proud of the record achieved in 1987 by the Department of Public Safety. It was the Department's 50th Anniversary and the actions and achievements of the members of the Department truly made it a Golden Anniversary year.
You faced your first big challenge within days after the beginning of the new year when you were called on to respond to a public safety situation in Forsyth County. The high degree of professionalism of the Georgia State Patrol was clear during those crucial hours when the spotlight of the nation was turned on Geqrgia.
The Georgia State Patrol began making significant contributions to our nation's fight against drugs by participating vigorously in the Federal Drug Enforcement Agency's highway drug interdiction program. GSP Troopers led the nation in the amount of cocaine seized from interstate couriers and placed second in the nation in the amount of drug-related cash seized.
In the area of highway safety, the vigilance of the Georgia State Patrol has not been diminished. Highway deaths per 100 million miles of travel this year d.ropped to 2.7, the lowest figure in history, but the number of DUI fatalities increased from 539 to 568 in 1987. Without question, the intoxicated driver still remains the number one highway safety problem.
Other than direct enforcement efforts, perhaps no activity impacts as greatly upon our citizens as does the Department's Drivers' Services division which provided 1.3 million residents with driver's licenses last year. Also to be commended are the men and women not in uniform who worked with dedication and diligence to support the uniformed divisions. I congratulate the Department on 50 years of service to the people of the State of Georgia and wish you the very best as you enter your second half-century.
With kindest regards, I remain
Sincerely,
j o e rank Harris
Governor Joe Frank Harris Board of Public Safety Members of the General Assembly Citizens of Georgia
Please accept for your review, the 1987 Annual Report of the Georgia Department of Public Safety, a summary of activities for the past calendar year.
The period covered by this publication marks the first full year I have served as your Commissioner of Public Safety and, hence, a report on my stewardship of the Department of Public Safety.
The year 1987 was the 50th Anniversary of the founding of the Department and we were pleased so many of you were able to help us celebrate the event. It is significant that during this anniversary year the Georgia State Patrol took giant strides toward national recognition.
Without diminishing its traffic enforcement program one iota, our troopers began looking beyond the traffic ticket for felons who use our state's roads and highways for their criminal purposes. Our program of Aggressive Criminal Enforcement resulted in 1,898 felony arrests, half of which were involved in drug trafficking. Of course, it has been in the area of highway interdiction of drug traffic that the Georgia State Patrol has achieved nationwide recognition. In 1987, Georgia State Troopers led the nation in cocaine seizures, and placed second in the amount of drug-related cash confiscated. It was a remarkable achievement and has led to GSP personnel being asked to lead drug enforcement seminars for other police agencies, both inside and outside the state of Georgia. Moreover, this teaching and experience-sharing activity was done entirely at the expense of the federal government or private associations.
There were many noteworthy achievements by this department in 1987, but perhaps none so spectacular as the response by the Georgia State Patrol to protect the Forsyth County civil rights marchers in January. The rapidity in which the members of GSP responded to the call and the professionalism and devotion to duty demonstrated during those critical early hours clearly illustrates the value of the Georgia State Patrol as the state's primary force for rapid response to statewide emergencies.
Out of that experience also came the realization that the force needed improved equipment and we began a program of improvement and upgrading that is still continuing.
The Department of Public Safety is grateful for the concern of the Governor and General Assembly in providing the money and staffing necessary to meet the challenges of law enforcement on Georgia's highways. Their support, and the support of the Board of Public Safety, will be matched by every member of this department as we work to better serve the citizens of Georgia.
Respectfully submitted,
Curtis D. Earp, Jr. Commissioner

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The year 1987 was rather momentous for the Department of Public Safety. The year started with the excitement and high drama of the Freedom Marches in Forsyth County in January. At the midpoint of the year was the celebration of the 50th anniversary of the foundingof the Georgia State Patrol. The year 1987also marked the frrst real tests of Commissioner Curtis D. Earp's "getting back to basics" style of law enforcement within the Georgia State Patrol.
He initiated a "look beyond the ticket" program that encouraged troopers to examine situations with which they were confronted in terms of awareness for the presence of felons, habitual violators and drug couriers. This, along with a major departmental awards and decorations program, comprised the Trooper Recognition and Incentive Program (TRIP).
Working hand-in-glove with this program was Operation Nighthawk, the GSP version of the nationwide Operation Pipeline, a highway drug interdiction program initiated by the Federal Drug Enforcement Administration. The success of the program far exceeded expectations and made Georgia a model for other state police/patrol organizations to emulate. When the books were closed on 1987, the Georgia State Patrol had finished number one in the nation among participating "Pipeline" states in cocaine seizureswith 548kilograms. GSP finished second behind New Jersey in currency confiscated with $2,515,659. Troopers also seized 755 kilos of marijuana, good for seventh place among participating states. All in all, GSP made 949 drug-related arrests during the year.
The "Nighthawk" program was in place for all of calendar year 1987, but the Aggressive Criminal Enforcement (ACE) program, which provided recognition for every felony arrest, didn't get underway until July 1st. Nevertheless, troopers racked up another 949 arrests for other felonies.
The year had barely gotten underway when troopers were summoned to Forsyth County to assist in the security mission. During the first march, only the troopers from Troop B were directly involved, but when the second march occurred, with its estimated 20,000 participants, more than 350 troopers from every post in the patrol were summoned to Atlanta. The professional conduct and calm demeanor of the troopers earned the Georgia State Patrol accolades from government officials, the public and the media.
One of the fallouts from the mission was that Colonel Earp, cognizent of the discomfort sustained by troopers who had to wade through ankle deep slush and snow in
5
their service oxfords, immediately set in motion a procurement action that brought the issue of all-weather boots to every trooper.
The department supervised the production of a 50th anniversary yearbook that was offered to all members along with numerous souvenir items such as cups, hats, belt buckles, tie tacs and the like. The climax of the year was a Golden Anniversary dinner at the Georgia World Congress Center. Governor Joe Frank Harris headed the list of special guests that included surviving members of the first Trooper School that graduated 80 troopers in 1937.
Although the year 1987 was exciting and significant, it was a fairly average year in terms of traffic statistics.
Traffic deaths in Georgia numbered 1,604, up from the 1,542of 1986. However, the miles of travel within the state increased commensuratelyfrom 49 billion miles in 1986 to 51 billion miles in 1987.
Accordingly, the most telling statistics in accident reporting-the death rate and fatal accident rate per 100million miles traveled-actually declined. The death rate was 2.7 per 100-millionmiles, down 14.8percent, and the fatal accidentrate per 100-millionmiles was 2.5, down 12 percent from the previous year.
The Alcohol and Drug Awareness Program (ADAP) reached approximately 120,000 high school students in the four-hour class mandated by the state legislature.
The Motorcycle Safety Unit, established early in 1987 under the Special Operations Division as a legislative mandated program, made a tremendous amount of progress in its first year. The Georgia program became the first accredited by the National Motorcycle Safety Foundation.
The Driver's License Section of the Drivers Services Division, which issues approximately 1.3 million drivers permits annually, in 1987achieved a significant honor. It became the first such section to achieve 100 percent certification of its eligible examiners under a program established by the American Association of Automobile Administrators. The basic concept of this program was to upgrade the professionalism of all certified examiners and to assure that individuals conducting driver examinations are qualified in displaying extensive skill, knowledge, experience and training in the art of driver licensing.
During the year, the Georgia State Patrol continued its practice of being in high profrle during danger times, particularly during the holiday weekends, when its presence will make an impact on highway safety.

Special Operations
Major E. R. Stephenson
Special Operations Division
Major Ray Stephenson, Division Director, Special Operations Division, had provided supervision and direction to the diverse units assigned to his command. The Aviation Wing continues to provide outstanding service to the citizens of this state with its drug interdiction-eradication program. The unit is nationally recognized for its productive efforts.
Exemplary service has been provided by the Implied Consent Unit in the maintenance of the intoximeters throughout the state and the training of intoximeter operators. Safety Education has continued with its model Alcohol and Drug Awareness Program with many positive results.
The School Bus Safety Unit continues with a high degree of visibility through its acclaimed school bus driver training program. The unit's program has evolved into a model often referenced by other states. The Intra-Agency Highway Support personnel have maintained a commanding posture in construction zones and with their diligence to safety, have been instrumental in the arrest of hundreds of violators.
Under the direction of Major Stephenson, Emission Control has revised its rules and regulations prior to the implementation of the computerized emissions inspection program. These improvements should bring the Georgia program into compliance with newly identified federal requirements.
Although a new program under the the Special Operations Division, the Motorcycle Safety Unit has made a tremendous amount of progress during its first year. The rider education and training aspect of the comprehensive program entered into a state accreditation agre:ment with the Motorcycle Safety Foundation which recognized the Georgia program as one of only eight states in the country able to comply with the established requirements.
Motorcycle Safety Unit
The Motorcycle Safety Unit is enacting a comprehensive motorcycle safety program which includes: rider education and training, licensing improvement and motorist awareness. The 1987 operational year witnessed the opening of seven training sites within the state, implementation of a mobile training unit, conducting of instructor certification courses and the enrollment of students throughout the state. Motorcycle licensing improvement involved the development of a Georgia Motorcycle Manual and written examination to accompany the manual. Motorist awareness efforts included the development and inclusion of the Sharing the Roadway Supplement on the Georgia Drivers Manual which alerts motorists to many of the peculiarities of motorcycle operation. Operation also included working with the Accident Reporting Section to compile an extensive record of motorcycle accident and fatality statistics.
Implied Consent
During 1987 the Implied Consent Unit conducted twenty basic intoximeter schools at the Georgia Police Academy. A total of 631 new intoximeter operators were trained during these classes.
In addition to the basic schools, there were also four one-day refresher classes conducted by the unit in 1987.
At the present time, the Implied Consent Unit is providing supervision and technical assistance to approximately 340 law enforcement agencies who are participating in the breath testing program.
Emissions Inspection
The Emissions Inspection and Maintenance Unit have recently been engaged in the implementation of a new computerized analyzer program. With the advent of this program, it is expected that we will have a much improved inspection program. This should virtually eliminate the possibility of favored inspections, as a printout of each inspection is provided at the time of such test.
Safety Education
The Safety Education Unit has been involved in numerous aspects of safety statewide. They have conducted programs to include: Defensive Driving, Truck Rodeos, Bicycle Rodeos, Safety Lectures and Career Day programs in our schools. However, our primary thrust continues to be the mandated Alcohol and Drug Awareness Program. They are responsible for teaching or coordinating the instruction of approximately 120,000 students annually in the four-hour awareness program.
Special Operations
School Bus Safety
The primary responsibility of the School Bus Safety Unit each year is providing safety instruction training to bus driver instructors from the local school districts, county and city, and to assist them as they train their individual bus drivers on the safety laws, regulations and safe operations of the buses. The School Bus Safety Unit conducts three basic instructor courses and the instructional courses are followed by three advance instructors' courses to prepare the local system instructors on setting up their safety lesson plans. In addition to the basic and advance courses, the School Bus Safety Unit schedules miniinstitutes around the state to afford large groups of bus drivers our safety information.
In May and June of each year, District Bus Driver Road-E-0's are conducted to select district winners to complete in the State Road-e-o. In 1987, Georgia had the distinction of the first place and third place winners at the National Bus Driver Road-E-0 held at Denver, Colorado. Cecil Weaver won first place in the points and Dewy Altman won third place. Both drivers were from the Appling County School System.
Aviation Unit
The Georgia State Patrol Aviation Unit was involved in many various operations during the year 1987. The pilots were instrumental in making felony arrests not limited to the "Governor's Task Force on Drug Suppression". The arrests were made in a variety of operations.
The Aviation Unit's personnel were responsible for locating four lost or missing children, capturing four armed robbers, recapturing five escapees, plus making eighteen other felony arrests.
The Georgia State Patrol Aviation Unit assisted in seizing 119,355 domestic grown marijuana plants for an estimated total of $103,045,696. Arrests stemming from the Marijuana Eradication Program totaled 320. These arrests were made in joint operations involving the Governor's Task Force Operation and with numerous sheriffs departments and other law enforcement agencies across the state.
The following is a breakdown of the Aviation Units flight hours:

Administrative Services
This section consists of the Hearing, Driver Improvement and Court Liaison Activities for the department.
The Hearing Section held 1,927 hearings which relate to the suspension of driver's licenses by our department. Out of the hearings, 854 suspensions were withdrawn based on the evidence submitted by the licensee or for the lack of prosecution by the arresting officer.
This section is also responsible for any appeals, both administrative and judicial. Administratively, the department has processed 66 requests for the commissioner's final agency decision which may be appealed to the appropriate court of jurisdiction. Our department has received 20 judicial appeals which are processed by this section and mailed to the Attorney General's office and the appropriate court for review.
The Driver Improvement Section is responsible for the operation of 146 clinics and 28 commercial driving schools. This includes the administrative and instructional aspects of its performance under the guidelines
provided by our department. Under these guidelines, there has been 24 clinics and two schools which have been penalized for their failure to meet or maintain these standards.
The Liaison Officer has the responsibility for notifying the appropriate personnel of changes that have occurred within our department. This includes the superior and state courts, as well as lesser courts that handle traffic cases within our state. He provides thesejudges with new departmental procedures and legislative changes that might affect the administration of their court.
Driver's License
The Driver's License Section of the Driver Services Division is responsible for the issuance and processing of all driver's licenses for the state of Georgia. There are approximately 4.5 million licensed drivers at this time. Provisions are also made for the renewal by mail of those drivers currently residing out-of-state for student or military purposes.
This section also processes all undercover driver's licenses, as well as handicap parking permits and nondriver identification cards.
Additionally, this section receives and processes all conviction reports disposed in the various court jurisdictions throughout the state. This requires the review of all information thereon and proper codingfor application to the appropriate driver records.
Through the efforts of sectional personnel, under the direction of Major H. H. Clark, Division Commander, and in accordance with criteria established by the AAMVA, the Georgia Driver Examiner Certification Program was established and implemented in 1987. This is part of a national program and this Department is honored and proud that Georgia was the first state to achieve 100% certification of all eligible examiners.
The basic concept of this program was to upgrade the professionalism of all certified examiners and to assure that individuals conducting driver examinations are qualified in displaying extensive skill, knowledge, experience and training in the art of driver licensing. This certification establishes performance, behavior standards and requirements to maintain certification and incorporates a system to provide incentives for the examiners to maintain the physical ability and training in order to perform their duties proficiently. Certification allows the examiners extended career goals and increased pride in their positions.
The Department feels the benefits of the Georgia Driver Examiner Certification Program will include improved public perception and awareness of the driver examiner, improved morale and self-esteem among driver examiners and will enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the examiners. It is anticipated that the program will attract quality applicants for this job field in addition to increasing emphasis on quality control as a result of statewide uniformity in testing and licensing standards.
Insurance Services
The Insurance Services Section is comprised of three units: the Insurance Unit, Safety Responsibility and the Self Insured Program.
The 1987 session of the General Assembly passed an amendment to the insurance law which included more stringent penalties for uninsured motorists. The Insurance Unit consists of 11 permanent employees and 24 temporary employees handling the high volume of suspensions from the insurance cancellations, convictions and retrieval of suspended driver's license and tags that are not surrendered voluntarily.
Driver Services
The Self Insured Program Unit has one permanent employee who is responsible for processing new and/or renewal applications, information requests, claims for injured parties against self insureds, hearings when necessary and keying new and updated information into the computer.
The Safety Responsibility Unit has six permanent employees and is responsible for processing accident claims on uninsured motorists when there is a reasonable possibility of a judgment being rendered. Claims are also processed on unsatisfied judgements and on out of state accidents in which a Georgia resident was involved.
Process Section
The Process Section was established on May 1, 1987 as a part of the Driver Services Division. The purpose of the section is to relieve troopers from the task of serving No Fault Insurance Suspension Official Request for Pickup Service orders, thus providing for more time for assigned traffic duties.
Initially, thirteen persons were assigned to the Metropolitan Atlanta area, including DeKalb, Clayton, Cobb and Fulton counties. Since it was necessary to send these new trooper cadets to Mandate School, only Fulton County was initially served with the five certified officers who were hired. As the remaining cadets completed their certification, they were assigned to the remaining
three counties with the final assignments being made September 1, 1987.
As part of this test phase, one of the cadets was transferred to Bibb County, thus relieving the posts in Perry and Forsyth of serving the orders there. This experiment has worked well.
Between June 1, when the first orders were received, and December 31, the Process Section has received 12,815 pickup orders. 12,341 orders were cleared, either through actual service on the individual or by determining that the person was unable to be located due to having moved or given an improper address.
The results of this test phase of the Process Section have been positive. It is the intention of the Department to recommend the continuation and expansion of this procedure.

Offices received new paneling and carpeting with new tile installed in the radio and checkout rooms. The interior of the buildingwas repainted and a weight room established.Improvementswere made to the license room while a storage building was added and the parking lot repaved. The improvements were made through the joint efforts of the Commissioners of Liberty, Long and McIntosh counties.
Captain R.E. Gilder assumed command of Troop H in 1987. In the area of Operation Pipeline enforcement,TFC B.A. Riner led the department with over $438,000 of drug money seized. A seminar was also held by Post 11 for local law enforcement officers on Operation Pipeline.
Post 16 Helena
The Helena post is responsible for patrol duties in Dodge, Jeff Davis, Montgomery, Telfair and Wheeler counties. Improvements to the post in 1987 included the construction of a canopy over the gas pump and a new 3000 gallon gas tank. The new tank replaced a 1000 gallon tank.

McCard, IUO Margaret Neal, Secretary/Typist Cheryl Bonita Taylor, IU 0 Bobby Solomon and TFC J.L. Conner.

Traffic patterns in the area have shown an increase thanks to an increase in the work forceat the Georgia State Prison, Rogers Correctional Institute,Hatch Nuclear Plant and other industries.There has also been an upsurge in recreational vehicle fatalities noted during 1987. License issuance and renewals are also increasing as well as traffic volume for the post area.
Post 22 Waycross

Of all the traffic stops made by personnel from Post 23,571 evolved into drug related stops. The total drug related arrests numbered 949.
During 1987, the Brunswick patrol post received a much needed facelift. The improvements enhanced the appearance of the post. The renovation was pleasing not only to the public eye but was a morale booster for personnel. All carpeting was replaced and 15 year old drapes were removed and replaced with blinds. A complete set of living room furniture, kitchen chairs and bookcases were added. The entire exterior of the building was painted in addition to the license room.
Post 35 Jekyll Island
