Letter to MPD Regarding finding of Office of Police Complaints Report

By ranpuba
Below is a letter sent by the BAC Safety, Education, and Enforcement Committee.  The letter addresses some of the areas of concern discussed in the Office of Police Complaints (OPC) report released September 29, 2011, "Improving the Safety of Bicyclists and Enhancing Their Interaction with Metropolitan Police Department Officers".

In response, Lt. Nick Breul of the MPD Traffic, Safety and Specialized Enforcement unit met with BAC at its last general meeting Wednesday, November 2, 2011 to discuss some of the findings of the OPC report. In addition, he discussed the results of the Enforcement of Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety; and Bill 19-475, Assault of Bicyclists Prevention Act of 2011 public oversight hearing held earlier that day.
