| All squad cars are maintained to stringent standards insuring reliability and good response. Each car is equipped with a global positioning system that not only assists the officers when navigating the terrain, but allows other officers and public safety dispatchers to view their location in case of emergencies. Reports can be generated and uploaded on the installed wireless Panasonic Toughbook laptop.
Several vehicles are also equipped with the Platescan technology. This technology allows officers to efficiently scan license plates using multiple cameras connected to a computer. The cameras are mounted on the exterior of the vehicle and work while stationary or in motion. The computer quickly cross references the scanned license plates with multiple databases to check for outstanding warrants, stolen status, and sex offender status. |
