The Governor’s Challenge is a GOHS incentive program designed to award outstanding achievements in highway safety enforcement and education. Georgia law enforcement agencies are judged on both the approach and effectiveness of their overall highway safety programs. Agencies are evaluated not just for enforcement initiatives, but for innovative problem solving in their communities, using public information activities, and creating departmental policies that support their traffic enforcement campaign efforts. The law enforcement agency with the highest overall evaluation will be presented with the “Governor’s Cup.”

Agency Categories

1-10 Officers--11-25 Officers--26-50 Officers--51-100 Officers--101-250 Officers--251-500 Officers--500 or more Officers--University/Campus Police--Georgia State Patrol Troops--Special Enforcement/Multi-Jurisdictional Agencies (DDS, DNR, Military, etc)

The top three agencies in each group will be recognized. One Georgia Grand Prize winner will receive a 2005 Chevy Tahoe!

 

The Governor's Cup Award will be presented each year to the agency that received the highest score of all applying agencies. The "Governor's Cup" will be transferred year to year from the outgoing Champion to the incoming Champion. Each year, the name of the new Champion will be engraved at the base of the cup with the other previous winners.

 

All state entries will be sent automaticly to the IACP for consideration in the National Law Enforcement Challenge Program.
