VAUGHAN INTRODUCES ONLINE PAYMENT OPTION FOR PARKING TICKETS
 
Groupe Techna has provided excellent customer service to the DC Department of Public Works (DPW) for the past four years. Groupe Techna’s Parking Enforcement product has been very stable and has fully met expectations from DC/DPW Parking Services Administration. From a Support standpoint Groupe Techna’s Analysts are always available to immediately address any ongoing operations issues that surface. It is a rare situation indeed when we do not immediately get to speak to a Groupe Techna Support Analyst whenever we call the GTechna Support Line. Most issues are solved quickly and to our complete satisfaction. Whenever product enhancements or System upgrades are delivered GTechna takes the necessary steps to ensure that the changes are first thoroughly tested and deployed in a staggered & controlled manner in order to minimize the risk to our large Ongoing Operations of 300 Handheld Computers employing MES Ticketing Software.

Recently, we especially appreciated Gtechna’s initiative to visit DPW and conduct an information session, with our Senior Management in attendance, to advise DPW of the latest technological innovations available in the Parking Enforcement arena. In summary, we highly value our relationship with Groupe Techna and look forward to working closely with GTechna on future initiatives in order to both improve & maintain our Parking Enforcement Operation at peak levels of efficiency & feature rich content.

QUEBEC PROVINCIAL POLICE ISSUES
1600 FINES IN ONE MONTH USING
GTECHNA’S MES PLATES LICENSE PLATE RECOGNITON SYSTEM (LPRS)

2008 1600 fines in a month.
Montreal, October 16, In one month of use, a new gadget that automatically reads
license plates allowed the Sûreté du Québec (Quebec’s Provincial Police) to issue
1 600 tickets and seize 200 vehicles.

The president of the SAAQ/Department of Motor Vehicles, John Harbor, said that this device is being tested as a pilot project for three months throughout Quebec.

"These two infrared cameras, are situated below the sirens and read all vehicle license plates at range of up to 180 degrees, targeting vehicles that have no business on the road," he explained. These devices can scan up to 5 000 plates per day.

Eight Sûreté du Québec (SQ) vehicles have been equipped with these cameras. In the month of August alone, officers issued 1 600 tickets and 200 cars have been taken off the road, said Harbor. The figures for September and October will be published in the final report, expected to arrive in November.

“The SAAQ/Department of Motor Vehicles provides the plate numbers of offenders who have not renewed their plates, or whose licenses have been revoked or suspended for any reason. You'd be surprised at the number of cases that we have had," he added.
