The International Road Policing Alliance (IRPA) is a recently formed and “growing organization of police, road safety professionals and partners.” The shared focus of its members is to work together to “promote safer mobility and decrease deaths and injuries from road crashes worldwide.”
Laser Tech is proudly sponsoring an IRPA luncheon during the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) Conference on Impaired Driving and Traffic Safety (IDTS) in Washington, DC, from August 16 to 18, 2024. We are excited to both help bring attention to this upcoming event and get our first up-close look at the IRPA in action. Since a major purpose of the organization is to open up communication between road policing and traffic safety experts, we are optimistic that the luncheon will be a safe environment that can inspire new members to join the alliance and start sharing their knowledge, experiences, and best practices.
The International Road Policing Alliance (IRPA) aims to connect international traffic safety authorities to reduce crash fatalities worldwide.
For those unable to attend the upcoming IACP IDTS event or the IRPA luncheon, the IRPA Online Community welcomes new members who have an interest in decreasing deaths and injuries from road crashes throughout the world. At your convenience, you can sign up to check in on and contribute to forums, key articles, and pressing topics being discussed in the international traffic safety community. Officially, the IRPA describes its Online Community as a platform that “provides an online forum to connect with international law enforcement leaders and road safety professionals to pose questions and share resources, ideas, and successes to support comprehensive approaches to enhancing road safety at global, regional, country and community levels.” To help make sure that community members are indeed committed to traffic safety, a quick screening process must be completed before access to the platform can be granted. Interested folks can begin the process by navigating to the “Join the IRPA Online Community” section of the IRPA homepage, and following the prompts.
Regardless of where you come from, seeking a decrease in worldwide deaths and injuries from road crashes is a cause we can all get behind. We look forward to continuing our relationship with this newly formed group and encourage fellow traffic safety authorities to join the IRPA Online community, share what you know and learn from others, or join us in becoming a sponsor.
Our mission is to equip professionals with smart measurement solutions for a safer world.
