National Incident Management System (NIMS)
|
| |
In Fiscal Year 2005, federal departments and agencies are required
to make adoption of NIMS by state and local organizations a
condition for federal preparedness assistance. Essentially,
organizations and personnel at all governmental levels and in the
private sector must be trained to improve all-hazard incident
management capability. These organizations and personnel must also
participate in realistic exercises to improve integration and
interoperability.
Hi Tech Criminal Justice recommends law enforcement professionals
visit the National Incident Management System Integration Center.

Tailored Technology
|
| |
State and local governments can spend more than $50,000 outfitting
one police vehicle with modern technologies, and adding the
necessary information technologies can double the cost of
outfitting the vehicle, according to market observers and police
departments. Vehicle service life varies, but typically lasts 24/7
for three to five years -- or about 85,000 miles.

Increasing High Speed Driving Performance
|
| |
CG-Lock was developed to provide a standard three- point safety
belt with a racing vehicle harness snug fit. According to the
developer, the device reduces driver motion and increases driver
performance. The developer is offering one free CG-Lock to any
driving Instructor (for police or other emergency vehicles) upon
request. The only obligation is for the Instructor to provide
feedback. For example, police instructors have reported that both
students and experienced officers have shown better car control on
the driving school test track when using a CG- Lock-equipped
vehicle. All responses will be kept confidential.
