Welcome back to Part 3 of our series on electronic ticketing equipment for the patrol car. As we’ve mentioned in Parts 1 and 2, there isn’t a “one size fits all” when it comes to having an effective eCitation setup in your patrol vehicle. Learn more about mobile printers for your patrol vehicle.
Welcome back to our eCitation guide for your modern patrol car. As we discussed in Part 1, there isn’t one clear-cut answer to the question of what equipment a patrol car needs. Why? Because each agency is unique, with differing preferences and needs. What all agencies have in common is the need to best serve & protect their community.
What equipment does my patrol car need for eCitation?” There is no short answer here because every department is unique. When you consider the diverse demographics and statistics among agencies, then think about your department’s specific needs and budgetary restrictions, and finally factor in the existing equipment you may or may not already have, it becomes clear that your shopping list might look quite dissimilar to others. Read our Officer’s guide to eCitation & keeping your patrol car current, efficient and safe.
The history of eTicketing has come a long way since the first drivers entered the roadways in the 19th century. Although not all types of technology have caught on, eTicketing technology is a welcome addition to police agencies nationwide.
