Saint Paul GISThe Saint Paul Police Department is committed to transparency. Each year, traffic stop data is released to the public. It explains who is stopped, where the stops are occurring and why officers are making the stops. 2024 Data: At a glance Officers made 26,994 traffic stops 25,893 traffic stops were made for moving violations 577 traffic stops were made for equipment violations 517 investigative traffic stops were made 7 traffic stops were the result of 911 calls Traffic stops: An important public safety tool Most traffic stops occur in areas of the city that have the highest number of 911 calls received Most traffic stops occur in neighborhoods experiencing the highest levels of violent crime Officers are most likely to issue citations for behavior that leads to crashes, injuries and death Traffic stops help officers take illegally possessed guns off the streets—in 2024, 131 firearms were recovered during traffic stops Previous data was removed from the city site to provide accuracy and consistency. The new data complies with MN data practices statutes and provides transparency to the public. Note: We have identified an issue with the time-related data in our datasets. The times are displayed correctly as Central time when viewing the data in the City's open information portal. Upon downloading or exporting the data, any date/time columns are converted to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). This results in the times getting converted to of either 5 hours (during Daylight savings time) or 6 hours (for Standard time) ahead of our Central time. To correct this issue, determine if it is Standard time or Daylight Savings time. Central Daylight Time (CDT) runs from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November. Central Standard Time (CST) is the remainder of the year. If it is CDT, subtract 5 hours from UTC time and if it is CST, then subtract 6 hours. This issue comes from the ESRI platform and is unable to be modified at this time.ArcGIS FeatureLayerhttps://hub.arcgis.com/datasets/c4f915a95edc47d0a93f95ad5430e1c8_0engCity of Saint Paul GIS DataPublicSaint Paul Police Department Traffic Stops [Minnesota--Saint Paul]Web servicesMinnesota--Saint PaulMinnesotaLast Modified: 2025-05-15
