Across the United States, cities and counties are ending traffic stops for minor, non-safety related violations. The result? Fewer car crashes and traffic injuries, greater community trust in the police, and a decline in Black drivers being pulled over at disproportionate rates.
Vera is reimagining safety—not through increased policing and mass incarceration, but with new policies that center our communities. Join us in transforming the system so that everyone is safer →
Police stop Black drivers at higher rates than white drivers. Some are stopped over and over again for small violations. These repeated stops put Black people’s physical, economic, and psychological safety at risk—and can even be deadly.
Meanwhile, putting an end to traffic stops for minor violations allows police to go after dangerous traffic violations like running red lights. These are the kind of research-driven solutions that Vera fights for every day.
Sign up today and support Vera in transforming the system with policies that make everyone—especially communities of color—safer.
