The Department completed another successful year of
grant funded enforcement that is designed to reduce
dangerous driving conditions on our major highways
and surface streets. The CVE grant allows the

funded by the Texas Department of Public Safety and
the United States Department of Transportation. The
end goal of these grants is to improve safety on the
highways by having officers use education and
enforcement to correct dangerous driving behavior.
