ct in one district and the fourth primarily collision thing not in the top 5 we'll get into that with the data and again i apologize there's a lot of data to give a shout out to our loan analyst karen that put this together with a mri idea of data resources to make something that make sense so here we have the 2014 san francisco government audit & oversight commission u citywide breakdown of citation issuance and we're 83 at 24 percent of the steernz they're in there and another large number the number one issue was cell phone and tint driving and april was distracking driving month the

distransacted driving leads to outlet issues our biggest category as it is every year as others that includes the 4 hundred and 50 code violations that people while driving this is the mode 2014 is obviously the most complete data it was not complete we collected mid year around 2013 and going forward i predict it will get better bless you. >> as you can see 201494 percent of citations were issued to drivers of vehicles whether motor vehicles or cars and one percent for bicyclists and then again, here's the by

showing what - who we gave citations to this is self-explanatory 2013 versus 20142014 was the highest number of citations by the san francisco police department because everybody was focusing on reducing collisions which is one of our preliminary responsibility facility and traffic reduced collisions and reducing crime in general as you can see we had quite an i want in numbers and the left turn is somewhat of a difficult violation to catch in the act those numbers were down everything else was up 44 percent up from the year before for the first quarter of 2013 and 2014 the last time this

information was not available we're down 22 percent year to date and red light cameras we issued hundred and 29 plus thousand citations and other red light camera citations the red light cameras are down some were taken down because of the construction and the timing was changed by the magnifying i believe based on compliments i'm not sure why down two percent and a big component is our traffic company was involved in a lot of things that took them away from their citation writing responsibilities here it is broken down by station every district captain power point presentation and the data is there for them to read

interpret and decide how to move forward with traffic as you can see some are up most are down and the totality is down 6 percent in citation issuance the first quarter and then here we have the focuses on the 5 first quarter 4 versus 15, 2 percent official down in city numbers but less when we're focusing on the 5 that is interpreted to mean we're focusing on deeply on the top 5 primarily collision factors this the the same data a little bit easier to read and again, all the captains were provided with that

here's a pie chart showing the top 5 primary collision factors it will not change much going forward in 2015 the next slides will show you what we're focusing on and here it is citywide as you can see 75 percent of the citations goes to the 4 hundred and 50 violations in the book this is i can't where we're focusing on 2015 those are the causes and based the data from 2014 and as you can see it is broke down down by police district of the data captured of collisions again as you can see overwhelmingly unsafe speed is mentioned citywide 40 percent and pedestrian right-of-way is 16 percent and we go down to red light

violations 15 unsafety turning 14 and starting and backing is 24 percent we won't change much from 2014 to 2015 but whatever the citation we'll pull the folks over and the collision data the most important thing will will come from the law enforcement slash pedestrian we'll reduce it overhead the numbers for collision severe injuries up the most important fatalities are down 5 of percent and never good it should be zero now but we're not there the upside is that the categories that are up they're down in pedestrian and bicycle injuries they're up in vehicle

injuries if that makes sense so i see that as a positive but again one death is too many so i know you have a lot of questions there are a lot of people that what answer them and a lot of people to follow up further on the presentation as well through the chair i didn't catch the number you read of the citations for don't blocking the box and over 3 thousand. >> okay. i heard the 3 and think i noticed that you know in 2013 we saw 23 percent of all citations were the top 5 that led to driving behavior in 2014 it is only up 24 percent but

citations went you up that's a blues and i'm curious about your thoughts i know it is a commitment last year we would get as close to 50 percent we're focusing on changing the behavior of what we thought were the deadlyer behavior that leads to the facilities and our thoughts around that and any reflection for the 2014. >> yes. i believe that you'll see the numbers rise will we be at 50 percent i don't know and but richmond will be and the captain dedicate and has the luxury of officers just to do traffic and pretty active team of officers to write as many citations not every district has that

luxury and certainly traffic could be more of a priority right now we're dealing with vibrant crime the homicides are up over the years and dictate balance they're focusing but again, i've sent this power point preservation to them and they're going to have a sit-down not only me saying you've got to do more but everybody saying you've got to do more and again there's no down side to reducing the numbers of collisions no reason not to get out there and educate through the enforcement so hopefully, we'll see the numbers rise but i cannot predict 50 percent. >> you think that is important to hit the 50 percent goal or it is the citations are appreciative. >> we hated the reduction of

collisions and certainly the reduction of serious and fatality collisions is the most important oneself and the most at risks groups people walking and bicycling and children and the elderly we need to see o numbers go down and as far this year we haven't. >> i'd also noticed that there's been a decrease in the number of citations in certain precincts not on the west side and not in the tenderloin it is great to see but i'm concerned around the reduction at central and southern those two precincts have a lot of the high injury corridors the 60 to 50 percent how is that conversation going we certainly don't want last year to be the big announcement

it fell in the list of priorities bay u by the way i'm sympathetic the police department has a lot of exceptions that the community has so i'm not a blaming statement but how to keep up the level of energy particular we know a high amount of injuries. >> you know southern station moved that may have effected the numbers. >> okay. >> i've had the conversation with both captains and they seem ready willing and able to increase their numbers and the captain at central i'm proud of him i think we'll see the numbers rise there. >> another question around the mobile handheld devices i know that sfpd will be receiving from

2015-2016 from the safety routes to school program. >> regarding handhelds? that's the number i got am i misinformed >> - >> hi with the self-healthy two grants coming online this summer with mta and the dpw for the sales force such a routes to school a third of the budget dedicated to the san francisco police department for $3,000 for enforcement for city hall's on high injury coordinators. >> but not necessarily going to handheld devices and in the other grant was with mta only to do the enforcement. >> sorry i think it is

important we look for grants to field funds for handheld citation devices for sfpd. >> we all are smart phones our coy is attempting to fund the citation from the smart phone this is the granted program we went through mta and hopefully add back that one. >> supervisor if i may i want to add a couple of wants you raised about the data and the issuance that arises one thing that the police commission did to include a wraerl report back to the commission on the data and partner with the department and walk sf and the brought to my attention coalition we meet and look at the trends and it is a model in terms of collaboration the bicycle

coalition says we don't understand and all that information is presented to the police commission to our point policing is reactive there are trends and the key with vision zero you laid out well, that is 2024 and keeping our focus and not letting it slip as other priorities come about in continuing to have those excellent data presentations it is my belief we've gator part of this is educating the officers with the data and that will take time but i think commander madding iblgs is good in explaining this once you turn on an officer to start they don't get to pick the

citations the ones their seeing not focused on ts 5 their told to enforce the only way to keep the previous on to look at the data we do that quarterly as a commission. >> thank you commander. >> and one thing with the blocking the box the example the imperative said the majority of citations are not more blocking the box but illegal uterines or turns to get into the blocking the box that's the citations they're writing right now. >> any other - >> so i believe san francisco municipal transportation agency and the dpw whatever order. >> supervisor wiener has a question. >> oh. >> thank you, madam chair

commander maddox thank you for the presentation and really gathering this data and taking vision zero to so seriously it is terrific i want to raise an issue with you i know it is a broken record that's double parking nermentz of what been haepd around double parking enforcement we had a hearing and we heard from sfmta the double parking enforcement is declining this is disappointing i know that the mta is going to be coming back soon what a plan in terms of how to wrap up double parking i'm curious to know whether the police department is it is much, much easier for the police

department to enforce double parking instead of sfmta but maybe both did not have an important role to play and double parking plays in vision zero, of course, double parking is a huge problem with muni reliability but a lot of double parking takes place in bicycle lanes it forces bikes into traffic and reduce the viability if you can give us an update with the biking authority. >> right now. >> yep. >> i didn't put it into operation but after that hearing i put out a message as a priority throughout the city to cite not only warn but i explained this is - and get the violator to move along to issue

citations i don't have a calendar on the citations we don't track parking tickets not that i'm aware of. >> but again, i pushed that message out. >> i understand i'm not expecting it right now but in terms of your general sense do you have a sense that there is increased activities within the police department on those issues. >> i can't the answer that today you know again i'll remind the captain that it is a priority in our as we reach the goals we're work towards the goals of vision zero again, a priority but i noticed double parkers everyday i know you do are they out there

with him punt sometimes they are. >> i appreciate our reminding the captains ultimate they have to execute they're short staffed and we're working hard to get more traffic enforcement but double parking should be part of it that release ems places a an important part i forgot it is hard to catch people in the act but double parking is easy to catch people in the act thank you. >> good afternoon supervisor cohen and supervisor wiener and supervisor kim i'm sammy sfmta enforcement manager

like to briefly talk about the gridlock citations that are enhances enforcement we call it don't blocking the box that our patrol officers have the authority to issue we have the authority to issue two different citations or for violations one is gridlock intersection gridlock and the second is intersection gridlock turning and the data before you shows that when we first started the enhanced enforcement pilot back in july of 2014 we focused 6 days during the giants game days

july 3rd through september 11th with approximately 4 to 6 parking enforcement officers as a result of that 6 days we focused primarily on south of market and the bay bridge during that period of time we issued 5 heed plus citations now we come do december i want to focus on at the hearing that was held before december here at this committee we talked about beginning an enhancement enforcement of don't block the box beginning on december 4th of last year to focusing on thursday and fridays

4 to 6 parking control officers we issued from december 4th through april end of april 3 thousand 5 hundred and 14 gridlock citation so the numbers are going up again, our goal is to insure we increase public safety and minimize the intersection blocking and look at it stream and down stream to make sure that improves crossed traffic flow and i think once we measure it once again we hope to do that either in the summer or the fall that the numbers have xhochd. >> can you repeat number of citations. >> 3 thousand 5 hundred and 14

between december 4th and the end of april. >> and then you said they preliminarily preliminarily operates thursday and friday. >> from 12:30 to 6:30. >> how do you select the intersections i know their throughout the south of market and the approaches to the bay bridge. >> so through observation we work with the bike coalition to get the locations they've been concerned with and complaints driven by the public and so curling we've tried to develop some consistency with working first first and harrison for market street, third street mission and we've also moved to other locations but again, the concentration is on first and harrison to build consistency

and will improve down stream as well thank you. >> thank you. >> you bet. >> and again we'll continue this effort until the end of the year and measure our success and determine how we go forward. >> with that any questions. >> thank you. i building supervisor wiener has a question no okay supervisor kim. >> no questions thank you very much any other departments presenting on this item. >> department of public health. >> dph. >> i want to recognize elaine short an epididymis i thought as one of our vision zero

commitments. >> thank you very much i wanted to apologize on behalf of megan who couldn't make that here she was originally going to be give this presentation she's unable to due to illness thank you, supervisors thank you for the opportunity to present on all our work of vision zero so as command maddox dominated a lot of dictated that sfpd collect a key component is the evaluation of preservation activities in the city those four goals are listed in our two year action strategy the first are no way to expand the

transbay monitoring for targeting and monitoring elevating data and as supervisor kim mentioned development of a comprehensive injury surveillance system i was hired on in december we'll be piloting the transportation related injuries vanes bends of this year and finding it to be added to transbay also to expand evaluation targeting the resources and looking at employee and post data collection for key initiatives and tracking the progress of the interventions also to expand the web presence for transparency accountabilities and monitoring and tracking of impact of the

interventions so the police department is a valuable and key partner they're a lead agency with within vision zero and as seen in command maddox presentation they hold two part of transportation data that helps us when is the traffic violations being sited and when and what those impacts are on injury and death also, they hold a key of the fatality data so we can answer who is being injured and killed and when and how and where to target vision zero efforts and see if those efforts are effective this is a snapshot of where we're at with the data currently as commander mentioned district

level reporting today we would like to be at location level reporting so right now the technology that their utilizing didn't have the ability to collect the location information where the visitations are being issued i believe that everyone was at the san francisco county transportation authority vision zero committee hearing where there was a budget request for this thousands for the citation project which would transition from handheld citation decides ask r devise to phone basis that allows the collection of the information when the citation is being issued. >> why is it we can't do location reporting it sites the

intersection where they give you the ticketed and the data imputing issue the vast majority is still written by hand. >> oh. >> thank you. >> and just a snapshot where we are at with the fatality data currently fatalities we have know portal for the public and city agencies to assess with our injuries and i'll be talking about fatalities in a little bit more with transportation injuries currently there's a data delay we have gaps in accessibility we're working on to address the main objective of my position to ultimatum both like those help out patterns to

have knowsly and assessable access for city agencies to access data and the public in collaboration with the police department and mta along with dph we've developed a protocol dph and mta and the police department meet set at one table and determine what traffic fatalities were recorded to vision zero and those are based on a uniform case definition so we have consistency and adequacycy in transparency and monitoring of death
