WHY:
To demonstrate new laser devices that pinpoint a vehicle within dense traffic, measure the violator’s speed, record the violation in real time and capture an image of the license plate.
Recently, the Department purchased ten LTI 20/20 TruCAM lasers that are capable of measuring the speed of a moving vehicle up to 1,000 feet away.
All of the accumulated data is stored and can be replayed back to the violator at the scene.
VISUALS:
