Trinidad & Tobago Police computerized license system

TTPS can check your vehicle inspection, registration and your drivers permit from this hand held device

[sMASH]

Sooo there should be no need to produce ANY documents on the scene, or even have them on ur person.

They can merely type in ur plates, or ur DP, and pull up everyting.

That law should be stricken off the books.

TTPS can check your vehicle inspection, registration and your drivers permit from this hand held device

In NA, UK and EU, the police have access to insurance, driver's license, inspection, vehicle registration, and arrest warrant postings at their squad car consoles.
You are still required to have those documents on your person or in the vehicle.

(Typing this for the wannabe-trollers on the forum.)

The police can stop a vehicle for any reason. If they ask you to stop, you should always pull over when it’s safe to do so. You’re breaking the law if you do not stop.

If you’re stopped, the police can ask to see your:

driving licence
insurance certificate
MOT certificate
If you do not have these documents with you, you have 7 days to take them to a police station. You’re breaking the law if you do not show the requested documents within 7 days.

The police can also give you an on-the-spot fixed penalty notice for many minor offences and make you take a breath test in certain circumstances.

You can also have your vehicle seized if you’re stopped on suspicion of driving without insurance and for some other offences.

Small strides towards being a developed country.
Large strides towards being an inept police state.
Giant leaps into the peoples' coffers by the businesses running the systems.

meanwhile offduty officers can drive heaviiy tinted vehicles with internal blue flashers
and bandits too...

[pugboy]

we should be looking to rfid plates and using plate recognition camera software to be able to do a visual cross reference on cars as they drive by to see if the plate matches the expected colour and make of vehicle(from the rfid data)

that technology is available now, not rocket science
put that in morvant and lavantille and you will see how fast them bandits have to look for something else to use instead of stolen cars to commit crimes

heck even all them local 5k and marathon running race using bib numbers with rfid built in to record a runner finish time

Not hard to add... We already have to produce a plethora of documents fur the most banal of transactions. One more won't hurt.



In fact, I motion that lo require u submit proof of valid insurance to be on file, just like u go fir inspection to update the system, u update ur insurance same time.

Ba dum tss

[pugboy]

the first step is the make plates tied to the person or entity for better tracking, dont tie the plate to the vehicle
one less layer of fakeness to deal with

The joke is that they figure nobody knows that they are police.

An example of an ALPR system with scanning license plates just implemented in ON., Canada, and what the police can do. There is no reason they cannot do a similar system here right?

The Ontario Provincial Police will easily be able to catch drivers for even minor infractions with the major expansion of licence plate scanning technology in the province.

Schmidt said the Automated Licence Plate Recognition (ALPR) technology instantly notifies police of things like expired registration, arrest warrants, or if a vehicle is stolen. It also has the capability of capturing vehicles of interest during amber alerts.

Up to three cameras are mounted on top of police cruisers. One or two cameras point forward, and one points backwards, so that an officer can scan cars in multiple directions.

Schmidt said the technology will be a "game changer" for police, who can now scan hundreds of licence plates within minutes while monitoring the roadways.

For example, within 22 minutes of patrolling Highway 403 in Mississauga on Monday, Schmidt said the system was able to flag 32 vehicles for infractions.

He said the system identified one suspended driver, four unlicenced drivers, and 27 expired vehicle registrations.

The number vehicles being flagged were coming in so fast it was impossible to keep up with pulling them over, Schmidt said.

I'm with them on this.

That's where the lawmakers need to play a big part in Parliament with this type of system to protect citizens privacy and rights. Any such system can be abused by the wrong authority. Right now there is constant tracking of all our movements via personal mobile devices and locally they definitely can use this tracking data to find a stolen phone in Laventille. In USA they used this type of cell phone tracking data to determine all the coup traitors who actually breached the doors and were present inside the Capitol on Jan 6th but it was used by the FBI with permission through the law.

But this can potentially cut crime here by a lot right now by detecting the movements of criminals in all the stolen cars with fake plates used in murders.

That database is actually Licensing Database, hence why all the confusion lately with inspection and the new rfid inspection sticker etc.

The same device is what the new tickets are being issued from, which has been in existence for a couple years

Ha trini police pulling over every thing and keep them in long line on side of the road.

[pugboy]

lpr and rfid is not rocket science

it is probably the only hope we have against criminals with fake plates

Remember that an attempt was made to fix licensing alongside the Caandians but it was blocked by corrupt elements

To transfer a car you need a certified copy less than ONE year old. From licensing office. The same place that does the transfers and has the database. So you have to prove to them that you own the car by giving them a certified copy issued by ...them so that they can transfer it. Smh.

[ProtonPowder]

Did the Clerk II make that up as you walked in?

[Chimera]

Who tell u that? I sold a vehicle 3 months ago with a 10 year old certified copy

[Chimera]

I don't think they even need a certified copy. Selling a vehicle next week will let ya know

Only thing you need to transfer is the transfer form , two forms of ID from both parties, a utility bill as proof of address and insurance on the buyer's name...certified copy is not needed

[Chimera]

Hooves u know u does steady give wrong info and wrong advice on everything. That piece u now put sounding right....but just because it's you.....I not sure anymore

[pugboy]

I thought they does send you in the back and have officer sign off on the transfer after verifying car is the said car

[hover11]

I thought they does send you in the back and have officer sign off on the transfer after verifying car is the said car

Well that's the correct information I listed but everybody else shoot a call and get things done without actually going into LO.

Was that the post where you stated that a certified copy must be carried in the vehicle at all times? Was that statement true or not?

[Chimera]

I feel a police ruff up hoovie 10 years ago and tell him to present his certified copy and since then he's always move with it lol

[adnj]

... certified copy is laminated.
