Police enforcement is a common and economical method to reduce red light running, since the automated traffic enforcement instrument such as photo enforcement camera is costly. In this study, we applied the Rasch model to analyze a Traffic Police Enforcement Ability Questionnaire (TPEAQ), and then used it to assess the perceived enforcement ability of red light running. Four main results were obtained: First, the perceived enforcement ability of female polices is slightly higher than male polices'. Second, the prior abilities needed to enhance for female polices are mental and psychosocial demands, whereas the psychosocial and physical demands are the priority for males. Third, heads can deal with the violator's complain well to prevent his objection. Finally, the future training for traffic police should focus on safety driving discipline, strengthen physical loading, and increase the ability of accommodating extreme weathers.
