FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Below are some of the frequently asked questions. If you cannot find your answer on our website, you may e-mail us or contact us during normal administrative business hours at 615-382-7007.

If I need law enforcement to respond, do I call Coopertown Police or Robertson County Sheriff's Office?
If you have an emergency, Dial 911 . If your situation is not an emergency, but you need an officer to respond, take a report, or contact you, call dispatch at 615-384-4911. That number is for 24/7 law enforcement coverage. In the event a Coopertown Police Officer is not available to immediately respond to your call for service, dispatch will send an available law enforcement officer.

How do I know if a situation is an emergency or non-emergency?
An emergency is when there is an immediate threat to life, limb, or property. For example, if a person is actively being assaulted, that could constitute an immediate threat to their life or limbs. An example of an immediate threat to property would be smoke or flames coming out of a residence - or - a burglary that is currently taking place. A non-emergency would be when a crime has already occurred and there is no immediate threat to life, limb, or property. For example, a person was assaulted yesterday, but wants to file a police report today and is in no current danger of losing their life or limbs. This would constitute a non-emergency. An example of a non-emergency relating to property would be damaged or stolen property. For instance, a damaged mailbox is a non-emergency. For more information on how to use 911 appropriately, visit 911.gov/using911appropriately.html.

I don't have a Coopertown address. Do I live in Coopertown's jurisdiction?
Coopertown does not have a post office or zip code. The Town of Coopertown is comprised of 32 square-miles in the southwest corner of Robertson County, Tennessee and is home to a portion of Cedar Hill, Greenbrier, Pleasant View, and Springfield addresses.

If I take traffic school, do I still have to come to court?

If you have a Commercial Driver's License (CDL), you are not eligible for traffic school.

If I witness a possible drunk driver, what should I do?
First and foremost important is your safety. Keep a safe distance from the vehicle and drive safe. Do not speed or run red lights or stop signs to catch up to the vehicle. Dial 911 . Be prepared to give dispatch the location and direction the vehicle is heading, a description of the vehicle and any occupants, and the license plate number, if you can safely get close enough to the vehicle to read it. Stay on the line with the dispatcher as long as you can and update them as to the vehicle's location and direction. Be sure to let dispatch know the description of the vehicle you are in to help assist officers in locating the suspected intoxicated driver. If you note any unique features about the vehicle, such as bumper stickers, damage, or vehicle accessories, relay that information to the dispatcher. The dispatcher may need your name and phone number to contact you in the event the call gets disconnected. Ultimately, think and drive safe.
