While most well-publicized incidents involve violence, traffic stops remain the most common interaction between police and citizens. This study provides results of a quasi-experiment based on citizens’ reactions to traffic stops before and after officer training in a mid-size US town; we also include officer-level data, answering the dearth of both non-urban research and officer effects. Training followed procedural justice (PJ) principles. Findings demonstrate a positive effect of PJ training on citizens’ perception of police, though outcome (citation v. warning) matters. Data suggest positive response among officers’ attitudes toward PJ, but heterogeneity in behavior. Qualitative data further identified reticence regarding scripts and challenges in dealing with certain populations. Implications suggest that community input, local police culture, and everyday interactions are more important than general perceptions of policing practices.
