Police Department Subdivisions

The Los Santos Police Department has four subdivisions that serve as specialized enforcement divisions and allow the department to respond to any situation that may arise.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――

The primary duty of the Traffic Enforcement Unit is to enforce traffic laws in Los Santos to reduce and help manage traffic collisions while keeping the flow of traffic as fluid as possible. T.E.U focuses on areas with high crash rates and areas of high D.U.I drivers. Speed is a key factor in T.E.U as our response times are unmatchable yet safe to the public. Our main focus is to keep the streets fluid for traffic, reduce D.U.I incidents, and respond to priority vehicle chase situations.
