"We put deputies on the road to make it a safer place to be. We aren't there to write as many tickets as possible. We are there to correct dangerous behavior," said Deputy Bryan Brodin. "If I can stop a driver, talk to him about a mistake he made on the road and help him become a safer, more aware driver - that's a good day."

The Ada County Sheriff's S.T.E.P. Team would like to remind you of some upcoming traffic changes on I-84 and two interchanges. Construction projects will temporarily shut-down parts of the interstate between Broadway and Eisenman between now and Summer 2008. Click here for details on the traffic changes.

The Sheriff's Office Selective Traffic Enforcement Program provides awareness, education, and enforcement efforts to improve road safety across Ada County.

Deputies on motorcycles do general traffic enforcement and also target specific problem areas. Other deputies handle commercial vehicle and DUI enforcement. The whole team works closely with local highway districts to help identify problems and make improvements in safety.

Do you have a traffic concern, question, comment, complaint or compliment? Contact Deputy Kevin Horan by e-mail or call (208) 577-3726.
