A citation system may receive data, including an image, from a handheld photo enforcement unit and issue a citation based on the image with minimal officer input. The citation system manipulates photos to identify license plate numbers involved in an event. The citation system requests identification from a driver database, issues a citation, and forwards the citation according to information from the driver database.

Handheld photo enforcement systems and methods

A system and method automatically detect traffic violations on roadways or portions thereof that are restricted for use only by permitted vehicles. The system comprises a controller, a vehicle sensor, and a camera. The vehicle sensor detects vehicle movement on a restricted roadway. Data from the camera and the vehicle sensor are analyzed by the controller to detect a vehicle traveling on the restricted roadway, to gather static vehicle information to determine whether the detected vehicle is permitted to use the restricted roadway, and to determine whether movements of the detected vehicle on the restricted roadway constitute a violation of traffic rules in effect on the roadway. The method captures at least one image of a vehicle on a region of the roadway, detects a vehicle in the region, collects vehicle movement information, and detects a violation of traffic rules in effect using at least the collected vehicle movement information.

System and method for detecting traffic violations on restricted roadways

A generally horizontal support table is provided including an upper surface and defining a transverse center line. A support member is supported from the table for guided rectilinear reciprocation toward and away from one side of the table in a plane normal to the upper surface of the table and the support member includes structure for supporting a rotatable chuck therefrom disposed above the upper surface of the table and in the aforementioned plane. The chuck faces toward the table and is adapted to rotatably support a drill bit. Further, a pair of abutment members overlie the upper surface of the table on opposite sides of the aforementioned plane and are supported from the table for guided movement toward and away from the plane along paths normal to the plane. The abutment members include opposing abutment surfaces paralleling the aforementioned plane and structure is provided and connected between the table and the abutment members operative to inversely and equally shift the abutment members toward and away from the plane containing the transverse center line of the table.
