 NYPD Highway Patrol - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The NYPD Highway Patrol -- also known as the New York City Police Department Patrol Services Bureau or NYPD Highway District -- is a specialized unit under the auspices of the NYPD's Transportation Bureau primarily responsible for patrolling and maintaining traffic safety on limited-access highways within New York City.
The NYPD Highway Patrol's origins begin in 1911 with the formation of the NYPD's first motorcycle squad, which was formed to meet the challenges of handling increasing traffic danger concomitant with the rise of automobile use.
The NYPD Highway Patrol is currently divided into five command units which correspond with the five boroughs of the city -- Highway Unit #1 in the Bronx, Highway Unit #2 in Brooklyn, Highway Unit #3 in Queens, Highway Unit #4 in Manhattan, and Highway Unit #5 in Staten Island.

As for its management philosophy, the NYPD combined the worst of both worlds: it was a micromanaged organization that was strategically adrift.
The NYPD does that through its now-famous Compstat process, which uses computerized crime statistics, electronic crime maps, and intensive crime-control management meetings to guide and monitor the department’s anti-crime strategies.
The NYPD is not a racist or brutal department.

 New York Daily News - Entertainment - David Bianculli: 'NYPD' through, but what a run!   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The irony, of course, is that after taking the hill, "NYPD Blue" and the rest of broadcast TV has had to give it back.
Ground gained the first few years, as "NYPD Blue" pushed the standards and set the pace, was ceded eventually to cable.
The occasional nude scenes, and relatively steamy sex scenes, got "NYPD Blue" attention at first, but the truth of the matter is that they played, for the most part, like the gimmicks they were.

People who criticize some of the NYPD's controversial actions today might be equally shocked by past actions, which included the common practice of accepting graft, brutality against criminals (with media support), bribery, riots, and competing city police forces, manipulated by politicians.

 NYPD-INTEGRITY   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The Zuccotti Committee (1987), the Mollen Commission (1994), and the NYPD's Reengineering Teams on Supervision and Integrity (1994) all found the lack of strong supervision to contribute to incidents of misconduct, corruption, and brutality.
Four factors were identified as contributing to this weakness in supervision: the closeness in age of supervisors to their subordinates, the lack of street experience and seasoning by new sergeants, cyclical shortages causing sergeants to serve as just another response unit to emeregency calls, and inadequate training.
According to the results of NYPD Survey No. 1, 44.6% of the patrol officers, 34.4% of the sergeants, and 27.5% of the lieutenants responding stated that if they had to do it over again they would not choose to be New York City Police Officers, a clear sign of alienation among organizational members.

 NYPD Blue | PopMatters Television Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Despite NYPD Blue's stellar reputation, it has had some problems, starting with its confusion about how much time to devote to the crimes the cop-protagonists are called upon to solve, and how much to spend on their personal lives.
The real bright spot on NYPD Blue as of last season, is the addition of Danny Sorenson, played by an all-grown-up Rick(y) Schroeder, to replace the sainted Simone.
They hold the crying children at crime scenes and serve as sexual companions for the boys in blue, but with the exception of Diane's unresolved (and terribly mishandled) child sexual abuse, the women don't have much to say or do unless there is a man involved.

 ‘NYPD Blue’ closes the case after 12 arresting years - TV DRAMA - MSNBC.com
Yes, “NYPD Blue” was packed with more than its share of swearing and nudity — the envelope-pushing program exhibited an R-rated cable sensibility just as HBO was beginning to unveil its own adult-situation-heavy original programming.
The move backfired, though, and in markets where the show did run, viewers tuned in to see what all the hubbub was about.
“NYPD Blue” took what was grittily perfect about its beloved predecessor, Steven Bochco’s long-running series “Hill Street Blues” (on which “Blue” co-creator David Milch was a writer and Dennis Franz had not one, but two, roles), and kept on pushing, dealing out equal parts stark drama, dark humor and jittery camera moves.

Six months have passed since we last saw the detectives of the fifteenth precinct, about as long as a tv season.
NYPD Blue once again starts late as a mid-season show, this time deliberately, to compress the shows into one non-repeating run and retain viewer interest.
It marks the first time in quite a while (Milch was forced to take time off during an earlier season due to health problems) this show has not had the hands-on storytelling skills of co-creator David Milch, he who was responsible for last season's multi-layered characterizations and atmospheric resonance.
