Our Mission
The Kansas Highway Patrol is devoted to improving the quality of life in our state through spirited and dedicated service. We pledge to be responsive to the concerns of our citizens while providing professional law enforcement services in the most effective and efficient manner possible.

We believe in treating all persons with courtesy and respect. The preservation of individual dignity and constitutional rights is paramount in the performance of our duties. Protecting the rights of our employees and providing them with a safe, secure working environment is of equal importance.

We are committed to providing protection of life and property through enforcement of traffic and other laws of the State of Kansas. We recognize that our authority to uphold and enforce the law is derived from the people. Therefore, we will endeavor to exercise this authority in a competent, fair, and honest manner.

Our Goals
Consistent with the Patrol's mission and principle function, we will strive to attain the following goals:

• To reduce the number and severity of traffic crashes.
• To promote the use of child restraints and safety belts through enforcement and educational programs.
• To actively enforce drinking and driving laws by employing proven DUI countermeasures such as selective enforcement and sobriety check lanes.
• To vigorously pursue, apprehend and prosecute those who utilize Kansas Highways for criminal activities.
• To improve the quality of our service and enforcement activities.
• To enhance public relations through local community involvement in schools, civic organizations and businesses.
