Traffic Safety & Patrol Units
Creve Coeur Traffic Safety Unit
The Creve Coeur Police Department Traffic Safety Unit is committed to making your community roadways safer. The Traffic Safety Officers are Ron Garner, Charles Parker and Michael Vaclavik and they patrol Creve Coeur's busiest streets between 6:00 am and 3:00 am.

For more information on the Traffic Safety Unit, please contact the Creve Coeur Police Department at (314) 432-8000.

The Four E's
The safety of the motoring public is enhanced through the four E's:
  • Engineering
  • Education
  • Enforcement
  • Emergency medical response

Through data compilation, traffic counts and surveys the department makes recommendations to the city, County, and State traffic engineers in areas of roadway design, modification and control. The Traffic Safety Unit regularly presents driver safety programs to schools and other groups.

Traffic Citations
The Department has issued more than 9,500 traffic citations in the past 12 months. While many have the notion that most citations issued by police for speeding, less than 40% of the citations issued by Creve Coeur Police are for speeding violations. Officers target specific problem areas and look for the violations that contribute to those problems.

Traffic Collisions
The Department responded to over 1,500 traffic collisions in the last 12 months. In those collisions nearly 350 people were injured and one person was killed. The traffic safety officers are also state certified accident re-constructionists, and are among 40 regional officers called out to reconstruct fatal or serious accidents in the St. Louis area.
