1. PROBLEM STATEMENT
Describe the city, county, or jurisdiction this grant will impact.
As the fifth-largest city in California, Fresno is home to over 542,700 residents and serves as the central hub for law enforcement operations in the Central Valley. Despite its growth, approximately 20% of the population lacks a high school education, contributing to a poverty rate of 21%. Dangerous driving behaviors remain a significant challenge for our department and community, adversely impacting both public safety and city resources. In response, the Fresno Police Department is committed to eliminating fatal and serious injury crashes through the implementation of the Safe System Approach. This framework prioritizes a shared responsibility across all levels of government, focusing on a comprehensive and integrated system that ensures the safety of all road users. Our Cities goal is to design and promote a roadway system that reduces risk and enhances safety for every individual who shares our streets.
Describe the problem(s) to be addressed, supported by current and relevant crash data. (most recent calendar year data/stats).
In 2024, fifty-four individuals tragically lost their lives in traffic-related crashes within Fresno. Of these fatalities, a staggering thirty-eight (70%) were found to be under the influence of alcohol, illicit drugs, or prescription medication at the time of the crash. The city has seen a concerning increase in fatal crashes relative to its population. Notably, eight of these fatal crashes involved at-fault drivers who were impaired by alcohol, drugs, or a combination of both. These tragic events were entirely preventable, and the Fresno Police Department remains unwavering in its commitment to eliminating DUI-related fatalities and ensuring safer roadways for all. Fresno continues to face a concerning rise in pedestrian fatalities resulting from traffic crashes. In 2024, pedestrian and bicycle-related incidents accounted for 61% of the city's total fatalities. Tragically, twenty-six pedestrians and seven cyclists lost their lives last year alone
The prosecution of drivers involved in impaired driving, injury, and fatal crashes has become increasingly complex due to evolving laws and state policies. Despite these challenges, the Fresno Police Department remains steadfast in its commitment to ensuring justice through thorough investigations, advanced technology, and highly trained personnel. To enhance our efforts, Crash Reconstruction Detectives (CRU) will utilize cutting-edge devices, such as drones, to assist in the investigation and prosecution of fatal traffic crashes. These drones integrate with our mapping and software systems, providing a detailed aerial view of all collected evidence, which is critical for building strong cases presented for prosecution. Detectives will utilize software such as DJI Terra Pro, which is a powerful mapping and surveying software that enables users to create high accuracy 2D and 3D maps using drone data. The software allows Crash Reconstruction Detectives to capture aerial imagery that is processed to generate detailed diagrams of fatal or serious injury traffic crashes. The utilization of this software ensures detectives will obtain a detailed and accurate depiction of serious traffic crashes. As a result, this technology will play a large role in identifying primary crash factors.
We will continue to collaborate closely with the Fresno County District Attorney’s Office and the Fresno County Probation Department to ensure the effective prosecution of impaired driving violations. Additionally, the Fresno Police Department will conduct warrant service operations and compliance checks to hold DUI offenders accountable, furthering our efforts to reduce recidivism and enhance public safety.
Define the target population the grant intends to serve and how they are affected by the problem(s).
Fatal and serious injury traffic crashes deeply affect the Fresno community, causing emotional trauma for families and friends of the victims. The ripple effects extend throughout neighborhoods, with grief and anxiety impacting residents and creating a sense of insecurity. These incidents also strain local healthcare, emergency responders, and law enforcement. The long-term economic costs, including medical expenses and lost wages, further burden individuals and the community. Reducing these crashes is crucial to improving safety and well-being for all.
6/10/2025 3:57:50 PM Page 4 of 12
The Fresno Police Department is committed to collaborating with all members of the community and implementing the Safe System Approach, to reduce fatal and serious injury traffic crashes, as well as pedestrian-involved incidents. By working closely with local organizations, neighborhood groups, schools, and community leaders, the department aims to promote traffic safety awareness and educate drivers and pedestrians about safe practices. Through targeted enforcement, data-driven strategies, and community outreach, the Fresno Police Department seeks to foster a shared responsibility for road safety, encouraging safer driving behaviors, pedestrian awareness, and the adherence to traffic laws. Additionally, the department will focus on high-risk areas, using technology and public engagement to prevent crashes and protect all road users.
Additionally, our city has witnessed a disturbing increase in organized illegal street racing and sideshows.
These dangerous activities often result in roadways being taken over by participants who intentionally block traffic, allowing reckless driving to occur. These sideshows are directly linked to some of the city's most common primary crash factors, including speeding, unsafe turns, and, in many cases, impaired driving. In recent years, these activities have been associated with several fatalities. In 2024, an alarming 1,267 crashes in Fresno were caused by unsafe speed and turning violations. To address these dangers, the Fresno Police Department will leverage LIDAR technology to assist officers in reducing the number of crashes caused by excessive speed, ultimately enhancing road safety for all.
Our longstanding partnership with the California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) has been essential in developing and implementing strategies that have undoubtedly saved numerous lives. Building on this momentum, we will continue to leverage OTS funding to support education and enforcement initiatives aimed at improving traffic safety. In collaboration with local community members and organizations, we will raise awareness of key traffic safety trends and enforcement programs. These efforts will encompass a range of activities, including but not limited to DUI saturation patrols, DUI checkpoints, pedestrian and bicycle safety initiatives, community engagement, and targeted traffic enforcement operations addressing our top three primary crash factors.
