The cost of paper-based citations is high: every year, agencies lose millions of dollars. Illegible handwriting or technical error cause large numbers of tickets to be dismissed. Manual processes require officers to spend more time issuing tickets and generating paperwork – and less time protecting the public. Motorola’s mobile ticketing solution, known as eCitation, addresses these issues by automating the process. When officers carry a rugged handheld computer with an eCitation solution, a ticket can be easily and accurately issued in record time – often under a minute. Citation information is then sent to headquarters – seamlessly and automatically, letting the officer get back to protecting the public.
