Police officers from Sulphur, Enid, Ponca City, Yukon, Newcastle, Blanchard, and Mustang attended Advanced Accident Investigation training at the Mustang Police Department this week. Captain Willard James, who is presenting the class along with Robert Lower of the U.S. Department of Transportation, said the 13 officers attending the two week long class will receive 80 Cleet Accredited hours for the training.

“These officers will receive approximately 50 algebraic formulas in this class to help them determine speed estimates from skid marks,” James said. “The class will focus on giving officers the information needed to determine speed based on airborne equations, vaults and flips.”
