safety. Three completely new chapters highlight the revision: Street and Highway Safety, Zero Tolerance-Driving Under the Influence, and Speed Management. The focus of the text is still on the police role in accident reduction and selective enforcement, but there is a strong secondary focus on new ideas and innovations likely to be successful in getting drinking drivers off the streets. The text is structured as an expanded course description of a one-semester course in police traffic control in community colleges or four-year colleges and universities. Headings throughout each chapter promt reader comprehension and could be useful in preparing lesson plans. Also helpful to readers and students are the newly enlarged graphics and a new glossary. It will be clear to the reader that this book continues to be the epitome of authoritativeness, comprehensiveness, and lucidity in the traffic control field.
