Book excerpt: Tribal police have no authority to enforce tribal traffic ordinances that are civil in nature against non-tribal members on the portion of U.S. Highway 75 which traverses the reservation. Additionally, tribal police have no authority to enforce tribal traffic ordinances that are criminal in nature against non-Indians any where on the reservation. Because it requires a case-by-case analysis, we are unable to determine whether enforcement of civil tribal codes on individual county and tribal roads is permitted.
