Northeast Traffic Enforcement Network NETEN

 




Northeast Traffic Enforcement Network (NETEN)

The Governor’s Office of Highway Safety in cooperation with state and local law enforcement agencies has organized regional Traffic Enforcement Networks around the State of Georgia. There are currently sixteen regional traffic enforcement networks servicing all 159 counties in Georgia. The regional networks are open to all sworn law enforcement officers and prosecutors and are designed to enhance traffic enforcement activities through networking, training and legislation. The networks serve as a catalyst for traffic enforcement officers to voice their concerns and share ideas with their counterparts from other agencies in their region.  The Coastal Area Traffic Enforcement Network was the second network to be formed by the Governor’s Office of Highway Safety.

Each Law Enforcement Agency in the State of Georgia is encouraged to participate in a regional Traffic Enforcement Network.  If you would like more information, please contact the traffic enforcement network coordinator for your region, Ricky H. Rich, Director of Operations for the Governor’s Office of Highway Safety.

Northeast Traffic Eforcement Network (N.E.T.E.N) consists of eleven counties.  They are Hall, Jackson, Banks, Stephens, Rabun, Franklin, Hart, Forsyth, Dawson, White and Habersham

The Coordinator for NETEN is MPO Griggs Wall Gainesville Police Department He is currently assigned to the traffic enforcement unit. The Assistant Coordinator is Capt. James R. Krockum Commander of the Patrol Division of the Habersham County Sheriffs Office
