Levin describes the NYPD's Vision Zero high visibility corridors initiative, which targets areas with high concentrations of traffic incidents for increased enforcement.
- Initiative identifies corridors with highest concentrations of collisions, injuries, and fatalities
- Traffic Enforcement Agents and officers are deployed to these areas for enforcement and deterrence
- Results show a 16% decrease in collisions and an 11% decrease in collisions resulting in injury or death in these corridors
