Gwinnett County police, code enforcement and animal control officers, as well as fire marshals, will soon be using new technology to issue tickets.
Commissioners have approved a $1.02 million contract to buy equipment from Thinkstream Inc., that allows officers to enter an offender's driver's license number into a handheld computer. The device fills in the rest of the information about the driver, eliminating time-consuming copying and ensuring accuracy. The officer can then print copies and upload citation data to central servers over a cellular modem.
