The transport sector is a comprehensive focus of the police's work.
Traffic monitoring
This includes traffic monitoring to ensure that road users comply with traffic regulations and speed limits. For example, using radar or laser measuring devices. Checks to prevent alcohol or drug abuse at the wheel, distraction caused by smartphones or checking vehicles for technical defects are just a few other examples of the wide range of tasks.
Traffic accident investigation
The police are also responsible for recording and regulating traffic accidents. The officers document the respective incident, determine the cause of the accident and assist in securing civil law claims.
Road safety work
The police also take preventative action by educating people, raising awareness among road users and taking measures to prevent accidents. For example, as part of accident prevention at kindergartens, elementary school and secondary schools in the form of the pedestrian pass, cycling training or the traffic puppet stage.
All of these exemplary tasks help to ensure road safety in the Märkischer Kreis district and to make road traffic as smooth and safe as possible for all road users.
