Colonel Ronald L. Bowman
Governor Zell Miller Members of the Georgia General Assembly Citizens of Georgia
It is my pleasure to tender to you the 1991 Georgia Department of Public Safety Annual Report, a summary of activity within the Department and a recap analysis of traffic accident data across Georgia.
The Department continued efforts to encourage seat belt usage through education coupled with enforcement of the state seat belt and child restraint laws. Accident statistics support the importance of safety equipment usage as almost 58 percent of the state's 1,393 traffic fatalities in 1991 were reported as lacking safety equipment usage. In contrast, only 188 fatalities were reported where safety equipment was known to be in use. The Department will continue strict enforcement of the laws and attempt to educate motorists to safety equipment advantage - all with a goal of a 70 percent compliance rate in 1992.
The noted decreases in traffic fatalities and DUI related accidents and fatalities are indicative of a combined effort on the part of the Department of Public Safety and other law enforcement agencies in Georgia to combat the problem of the impaired driver. In 1991, alcohol andlor drugs were a factor in 470 fatal accidents resulting in 540 traffic fatalities. While these two indicators are the lowest in five years, the Department must remain cognizant of the problem and work even harder to reduce the number of impaired drivers from the roadways.
The men and women of the Georgia Department of Public Safety stand ready to meet these challenges in an efficient and economical manner.

Members of the Department of Public Safety:
I want to express my appreciation for the outstanding accomplishments of the Department of Public Safety during 1991. The Department has taken the lead in the fight to take the impaired driver off the roadway and to make highway travel safer for all motorists in Georgia.
Traffic fatalities fell to 1,393 for 1991, a 10.9 percent decrease and the lowest since 1985 when Georgia recorded 1,362. Also declining was the number of alcohol and drug related fatalities from 670 in 1990 to 540 in 1991. These statistics are reflective of your enforcement and education efforts.
Your accomplishments in 1991 are indicative of your dedication and it is a record which each person in the Department of Public Safety can be justifiably proud. I commend each of you for your work to make travel on our roadways better for everyone.
With kindest regards, I remain
Sincerely,
0Zel Miller

Public Information
The Public Information Office functions as the conduit of information for the Department of Public Safety to members of the news media, the general public and Department employees. In 1991, Public Information prepared news releases relating to traffic safety, new programs within the Department, information on the federally mandated Commercial Drivers License program, and travel advisories for the 6 national holiday periods.
Day-to-day activities of the Department were reported in "The Bulletin" weekly.

Commissioner's Office
Internal Affairs
On May 1, 1991, the title of the internal investigation unit was changed from the Office of Professional Standards to Internal Affairs. The office is staffed by a chief investigator, an assistant and a secretary.
In 1991, the Internal Affairs Division fielded telephone and written complaints from the public regarding employees as well as other law enforcement agencies. Upon completion of each case, a concise, written report is prepared for the Commissioner detailing whether the complaint is substantiated based on pertinent facts.
Investigators assigned to the Internal Affairs Division possess knowledge of criminal law regarding all forms of arrest, including rules of evidence pertaining to interrogation, search and seizure. Investigators attended regularly scheduled meetings with surrounding metro agencies on the federal, state and local level to update criminal activity files and share intelligence information. Thcy attended various schools and seminars in an effort to learn new and updated investigative techniques.
Planning and Research
The Planning and Research Office, consisting of a Planning Officer, three assistants and a secretary, reports to the Commissioner. As a staff-oriented function, Planning and Research routinely develops and proposes plans for both immediate problem resolution and long-range goals of the Department.

He joined the Georgia State Patrol in 1965, graduated with the 26th Georgia State Patrol Trooper School and was assig-ned to Post 26, Thomaston.
In 1969, he was selected to attend the Northwestern University Traffic Institute, a post-graduate level police management school. Over the next ten years, he attained increasing responsibility and rank.
Lt. Colonel Rearden was promoted to major in July, 1977, and assigned as Director of the Personnel and Training Division where he remained until named Commanding Officer of Field Troops for the Northern Division of the Georgia State Patrol in 1979.

Training
1991 was an active year for the Training Section. The 65th Georgia State Patrol Trooper School convened on April 28 and graduated 32 "street-ready" troopers on November 8. This class was the first to conduct the last 30 days of their field training at the post where they were to actually be assigned. This action ensured that the new troopers were familiar with their territory, and enabled them to be ready for single patrol duty the day after graduation.
The Training Section ccntinued with the biannual physical fitness and in-service training. These programs are mandated by departmental policy and Peace Officer Standards and Training. They
far exceed the requirements of law regarding mandated annual training for peace officers. The physical fitness program continues to visibly affect our agency with healthier and more physically fit troopers.
Also during the year, the Training Section coordinated 119 advanced and specialized training programs. 1,971
troopers attended these courses. Civilian employees continued to be afforded available programs, and 18 employees attended 13 schools.
Plans for 1992 include in-service training related to officer survival, D.O.T. regulations and Commercial Driver License.

Troop J
Troop J is composed of Safety Education, Implied Consent, Emission Control and the Motorcycle Safety Unit. These sections have performed their assigned duties in a highly professional manner in the past year. Their established goals were met or exceeded without exception.
Safety Education was involved in the total spectrum of traffic safety throughout the state. This included safety lectures to civic groups, bicycle rodeos and other special details as the Department deemed necessary.
The primary concern of Safety Education continued to be the Alcohol and Drug Awareness Program(ADAP). Troopers involved in this endeavor taught the course to more than 130,000 high school students.
During the Christmas and New Year's holidays, Safety Education, in conjunction with local law enforcement agencies, city and county governments, was able to get over 30 local governments to issue proclamations, over 45 newspapers and over 61 radio stations to assist in making the public aware of the "National Drunk and Drugged Driving Awareness Week."
In addition to these safety presentations, personnel of Safety Education assisted with traffic enforcement by issuing 2,416 arrests and 7,369 warnings.
The Emission Inspection Section continued to experience an increase in inspection stations and mechanic inspectors. The four-county area presently under the emissions program consisted of 595 permanent stations, 55 fleet stations, 131 temporary stations and over 3,300 mechanic inspectors.
Among the daily inspections and audits of stations by troopers, there were 840 covert investigations and 1,570 investigation hours resulting in 235 suspensions and 260 probations.
The Emissions Section received commendation from the federal Environmental Protection Agency for its enforcement
practices and new innovations for detecting illegal inspection activities by private emission testing stations and automobile dealerships. The results from these new innovations enabled troopers to easily detect numerous counts of fraud (falsifying information on state documents) which had for years been evasive. They also enabled troopers to monitor the sales and practices of used auto dealers in regards to violations of federal and state emission laws.
The federal E.P.A. was so impressed by the new innovations of the Georgia State Patrol that they intend to implement these enforcement procedures in other states.
Georgia
Patrol
The Implied Consent Unit has a staff of nine troopers who are responsible for the training of intoximeter operators and maintenance of the breath testing program for the state.
During 1991, the unit conducted 53 intoximeter classes. In addition, the unit responded to 574 calls to assist city, county and state agencies with their breath testing program. In addition to these duties, the personnel of the Implied Consent Unit issued 360 traffic arrests and 854 warnings.
The public rider education and training program of the Motorcycle Safety Unit enrolled 906 students across the state in 1991. This included 769 beginner students and 137 Experienced Rider Course students in the operation of a mobile training unit and ten fixed training sites. In order to measure program effectiveness and evaluate the need for establishment of training sites, the Motorcycle Safety Program closely monitors and reports on
motorcycle accident, injury and fatality figures, motorcycle licensing statistics and motorcycle registration data.
Students successfully completing the beginner rider course are eligible, as of the beginning of the 1991 training season, to apply for a Georgia motorcycle license without being required to take the written and road tests at the license issuing facility. Besides the public rider training courses, the Motorcycle Safety Program also makes motor officer training available to law enforcement agencies in the state.
In order to provide the various motorcycle rider education and training programs, the Motorcycle Safety Program is also required to conduct instructor training (certification) courses. This 60-hour course, like most other course offerings, is conducted during evenings and weekends while focusing on teaching experienced Georgia motorcyclists "how" to teach the curricula. Twelve instructor candidates enrolled in this training during the 1991 season.
All Motorcycle Safety instructors are required to complete ERC update training, scooter certification training and an annual instructor update which are conducted by the Department.
The motorist awareness aspect of the Motorcycle Safety Program includes an annual Capitol Ride-In, an on-going bumper sticker campaign, a major proclamation/resolution signing effort and displays at various events and shows across the state. May was established as "Motorcycle Awareness and You" month on state and local government levels. Georgia joins more than 12 states and Canada in this seven-year-old campaign.
The motorcycle licensing improvement effort witnessed the certification of 31 additional MLST examiners during 1991. This brings the total number of Motorcycle Safety Program-certified MLST examiners to more than 200 since 1989.
In addition to being responsible for examiner certification training, the Motorcycle Safety Program is charged with maintaining the written examination, motorcycle operator manuals, motorcycle road test ranges and the MLST equipment utilized by the Department in motorcycle license issuance.
