The Denver Police Department's Traffic Investigations Unit (TIU) has been recognized by the Colorado Department of Transportation and Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) as the 2025 Law Enforcement Champion for their efforts in battling impaired driving. In an event this past Wednesday, their team was honored for their dedication to traffic safety enforcement, particularly for investigating impaired driving crashes.

According to the Denver Police Department, this recognition looks at the comprehensive approach towards reducing traffic-related issues, specifically impaired driving, ensuring greater use of seat belts, and curbing speeding. The unit's performance was measured by an impressive number of citations and arrests, alongside their use of drug recognition expertise and high visibility enforcement tactics.

The award, as described, reflects an outstanding support and dedication to the cause and is a mark of honor for those in law enforcement who go above and beyond in their pursuit of making roads safer for the community. The Denver PD proudly took to their social channels to celebrate the win, encouraging the public to join in congratulating the TIU for their achievement.
