The Nolensville Police Department is proud to announce that Detective Frank Marusa has successfully graduated from the prestigious National Public Safety Innovation Academy (NIA), held in Polk County, Florida.
The NIA is an intensive eight-week executive-level training program designed for law enforcement professionals preparing to assume or currently serving in command-level positions. This advanced academy equips mid-level managers and future agency leaders with the knowledge, tools, and strategies necessary to effectively navigate the evolving demands of public safety leadership.
Throughout the course, Detective Marusa engaged in cutting-edge instruction led by nationally recognized presenters and subject matter experts. The academy focused on leadership development, administrative excellence, and innovative approaches to policing in today’s complex public safety environment. The training is designed not only to enhance individual leadership skills but also to bring long-term benefits to participating agencies and their communities.
“The entire department is proud of Detective Marusa’s dedication and commitment to professional growth,” said Chief Dale Armour. “His successful completion of this academy reflects both his personal drive and our department’s focus on investing in leadership development to better serve the Town of Nolensville.”
As law enforcement continues to adapt to new technologies, emerging trends, and the expectations of the communities they serve, programs like NIA ensure that public safety leaders remain equipped to lead with integrity, innovation, and resilience.
Congratulations to Detective Marusa on this outstanding achievement.

As summer kicks off, the Nolensville Police Department is partnering with the Tennessee Highway Safety Office (THSO) to remind motorists to Click It or Ticket. Through June 1, participating agencies across the state will increase seat belt enforcement as part of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s (NHTSA) nationwide mobilization.
Wearing a seat belt correctly is the easiest way to prevent injury or death in the event of a crash. Most Tennesseans know the lifesaving value of seat belts—in 2024, the statewide seat belt rate was over 92%!
Remember, Click It or Ticket!

Street crossings and intersections require extra caution from drivers — a pedestrian unexpectedly entering the roadway is far more vulnerable than a car making a sudden lane shift. Slow down and drive predictably; everyone is a pedestrian at some point.

From 2023-2024, 1 out of 13 crashes on Tennessee roadways involved a distracted driver. Phone use remains one of the top causes. But here's the good news: it's totally preventable!
📵 Make the driver’s seat a “No-Cell Zone” by setting your GPS beforehand and activating 'Do Not Disturb' mode before you start the car.

Commercial truck blind spots are called “no-zones” because there is no way a truck driver can see a vehicle sitting in one. When you need to pass a truck driver, do so as quickly as possible so that you get back into their visibility range. Prioritize safety, give space, and adjust your speed accordingly.

No matter what kind of vehicle you drive, Tennessee's seat belt laws require that all drivers and front seat passengers wear seat belts at all times when the vehicle is in forward motion. #BuckleUp
