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.”
