Plate Scanner & Pursuit Mode – SOP

Plate Scanner Procedures

All officers must ensure their plate scanner is properly bound in FiveM keybinds and actively used while on patrol.

• Your radar must be activated for the plate scanner to function.

• The scanner has independent front and rear plate readers.

• When a plate is scanned, a record is automatically created in the MDT/dashboard.

• There is no requirement to 311 after running a plate scan, as the information is now automatically written into dispatch.

Plate Scan Information Displayed

The plate scanner provides the following information:

• Distance

• Plate

• Vehicle

• Class

Locked-In Plates

When a plate is locked in, officers may:

• Print a speed ticket directly from the scanner, or

• Print a citation for other traffic offenses.

You must print two copies:

1. One copy for evidence.

2. One copy for the suspect.

The scanner can be configured in settings to automatically lock plates once a speed threshold is met.
