Ryan Fleming – On the Beat
Our dedicated traffic staff at Te Awamutu play a vital role in keeping our roads safe and our community protected. Their work goes far beyond issuing tickets — these officers are specialists in road policing, with a strong focus on education, prevention, and enforcement.

On any given day, our traffic team may be found monitoring high-risk areas for speed and impairment, checking vehicle safety, or engaging with schools and local groups to promote road safety awareness. They also respond to and investigate serious and fatal crashes, working closely with crash analysts to determine causes and help prevent future tragedies.
Their efforts are key in reducing harm on our roads and supporting safer journeys for everyone in the Waikato. Whether it’s early morning breath tests or late-night crash scenes, our Te Awamutu traffic team is always on the move — making a difference where it counts.
In our policing area, our traffic section is staffed from Te Awamutu and Cambridge covering the whole area.
A piece of road safety advice from me is to make sure you have your lights on during foggy mornings.
