Tribal Traffic Regulation and Community Safety

Indian tribes are sovereign nations and have the right to govern their land. The roadways that cross their lands carry people into their nations. These in-between spaces can become a stage for contention, but they also represent a chance for cooperation. Federal litigation has at times stood in defiance of tribal sovereignty. In many ways it still does. This video talks about the real and present opportunities for tribal judges to impact the health and safety of tribal communities.
