Traffic stops across Connecticut

Connecticut police collect and report highly detailed data on traffic stops that are being used by researchers at Central Connecticut State University's Institute for Municipal & Regional Policy to try to identify racial profiling practices. The data is collected to comply with revisions passed in 2013 to a 1999 law, the Alvin W. Penn Racial Profiling Prohibition Act.

TrendCT has created this portal to give readers a sense of what some of the data "look like" at the statewide, police department and individual officer levels. This page shows the aggregate data for all departments across the state. You can also see profiles for each police department, and from there you can view data on individual officers in the department.
