IACP’s Vehicle Crimes Committee has been busy for the last few years!

                                  The committee continually works on multiple issues regarding vehicle related
                                  crimes.  Currently work groups are focusing on rental vehicle thefts, emerging
                                  technology issues and creating a vehicle crimes toolkit for smaller agencies.

                                  More than 75% of crimes committed each year involve motor vehicles. The IACP
                                  Vehicle Crimes Committee recently developed a comprehensive educational
                                  toolkit for vehicle crimes investigations. The toolkit, along with the
                                  corresponding reference and resource guide and presentation, provides law
         enforcement agencies with the information they need to enhance their response to vehicle-related
         crimes.

         The mission of this IACP working group is to create a best practices guideline for law enforcement
         agencies that do not have a dedicated   vehicle crimes investigator. The material here-in will provide
         them with the resources necessary to better investigate vehicle related crime. The IACP Vehicle Crimes
         Committee has created a concise and comprehensive “Educational Toolkit for Vehicle Crimes
         Investigation".
