| Traffic
Enforcement Unless otherwise posted, speed limits on County roads are 30 mph if gravel, and 40 mph if paved. The Traffic Enforcement Unit was created in 2001 with the addition of one deputy whose duties were to selectively enforce traffic laws (Selective Traffic Enforcement Program) based on citizen complaints of traffic violations and areas that have a high amount of traffic accidents. The Traffic Unit has since grown into a three man unit. Traffic Unit Supervisor School Resource Officers Responsibilities of the School Resource Officers include investigating criminal offenses that occur on campus as well as providing educational programs for students. The Wise County S.O. currently services the Alvord ISD, Chico ISD, Paradise ISD & Slidell ISD. The Sheriff's Office provides services for the youth of Wise County including school resource officers, the Together Against Drug Abuse program, as well as other youth oriented programs.
