Abstract

During 2004, State Troopers patrolled a total of 10.4 million miles on Iowa's roadways, focusing on traffic enforcement, criminal interdiction, and providing assistance to motorists in need. Comparatively, Troopers drove 11.1 million miles in 2003. The mileage difference between 2003 and 2004 reflects a 9% reduction in the number of Troopers patrolling Iowa's roadways. Prior to budget restraints that started in 2001, the State Patrol had 439 sworn positions and currently the State Patrol has 370 sworn positions. At full strength, the patrol's full compliment would be 451 Troopers. Current staffing levels are the lowest they have been since the 1960's.
