Disciplinary Trial Boards

Complements and Complaints - Who will Guard the Guardians?The Maryland Transportation Authority Police (MDTA Police) conducts disciplinary trial boards in accordance with the Maryland Police Accountability Act. Pursuant to the Act, if the investigation or interrogation of a law enforcement officer results in a recommendation of demotion, dismissal, transfer, loss of pay, reassignment, or similar action that is considered punitive, the law enforcement officer is entitled to a trial on the issues by a trial board before the law enforcement agency takes that action. A law enforcement officer who has been convicted of a felony is not entitled to a trial under this section.

Hearing Boards Open to the Public
  • Effective October 1, 2016, trial boards are open to the public, unless the Chief finds a trial must be closed for good cause, including to protect a confidential informant, an undercover officer, or a child witness.
  • Audio/video recording of the trial board proceedings by members of the public is prohibited.
  • Members of the public will be subject to security inspections prior to viewing the trial board proceedings.
  • All trial boards will take place at MDTA Police Headquarters, located at 4330 Broening Highway Baltimore, Maryland 21222, unless otherwise noted.
  • Anyone planning to attend a meeting announced below who wishes to receive auxiliary aids, services, or accommodations is invited to contact the MDTA Police Internal Affairs Unit at 410-295-8143 (MD Relay at 711) at least 48 hours in advance.

Serious About Safety: CHART’s Role in Keeping Maryland Moving

This month’s Serious About Safety feature highlights the Coordinated Highways Action Response Team (CHART) and the work its teams do every day to help keep Maryland’s roadways safe.

CHART Emergency Response Technicians respond to crashes, disabled vehicles, roadway hazards, and other incidents, often while working alongside fast-moving traffic. Their jobs come with risks, which is why it is important for drivers to slow down and give roadside responders the space they need to work safely.


In this month’s video, Brian Knott, an Emergency Response Technician with CHART at the State Highway Administration, shares more about his role, the safety challenges CHART teams face, and what drivers can do to help protect roadside workers. The feature also highlights Maryland’s Move Over law. When approaching a stopped emergency, service, or maintenance vehicle with its warning lights activated, drivers are required to move over when it is safe to do so. If moving over is not possible, drivers must slow down and proceed with caution.

Watch Brian’s video below to learn more about CHART and the importance of the Move Over law.

Want to learn more about CHART operations? Hear additional insight from the CHART Field Training & Certification Manager and Division Chief of Regional Operations on the Serious About Safety Hub page.
