Results of a study on the reactions of traffic flow to police vehicle stimuli are presented. Both moving and stationary state police vehicles were used in the examination to determine their effects on a variety of traffic flow measures. Six stationary enforcement vehicle configurations, representing various intensities of police activity, were included. A special computer-sensor system was used to collect and to store traffic flow data. Both mean speed and percentage of speed violators were affected by the enforcement vehicles. In terms of absolute reductions in these measures, the immediate effects were more pronounced for the more-threatening, than for the less-threatening, stationary vehicle configurations.
