The Norwalk police recently installed two mobile data terminals (MDT) and E-printers on two of the department’s motorcycles used to enforce traffic.
These MDTs are the same equipment found in other police vehicles. During traffic stops, the devices allow officers to quickly access information instead of relying on dispatchers. Additionally, officers no longer need to write out tickets and can type and print them instead.
An anonymous city resident provided the nearly $15,000 needed to purchase and install the equipment.
