High Visibility Enforcement“Goal number one of the Utah Highway Patrol is to prevent traffic crashes and the resulting injuries and deaths. High visibility enforcement is more than just being highly visible. It combines visible enforcement elements with a marketing strategy to educate the public and promote voluntary compliance with traffic laws.”
