Gardai in Tipperary had a very busy afternoon recently, stopping and seizing two cars for breaking the law after getting an alert on their app.
The Traffic App helps detect disqualified drivers, untaxed cars and stolen vehicles, all at the members’ fingertips. The Offences App provides offence details including penalty points and fines.
The device scans the registration plates and automatically returns relevant data. The device can also scan a driving licence and automatically return real time information on the roadside to the Garda. This has proved successful in identifying false or forged driving licences and disqualified drivers.
