HOW ITWORKS

Page 13: PROGRAMOVERVIEW. OURMISSION Safeguarding your children with the industries first comprehensive stop arm enforcement solution, thus creating a deterrent.

LEADING-EDGETECHNOLOGY

Safety camera systems equipped with industry-leading SMARTcam™ software, providing unmatched

functionality and flexibility. Cameras are unobtrusive, and easily installed and

operated on any school bus.

Cameras can capture multiple viewpoints across multiple lanes, even in low light or poor weather conditions

System automatically detects vehicles in the violation zone – no action is required by the bus driver

SMARTscene™ full-motion video system provides situational awareness before and after each incident

Page 14: PROGRAMOVERVIEW. OURMISSION Safeguarding your children with the industries first comprehensive stop arm enforcement solution, thus creating a deterrent.

SECUREDATACAPTURE

Camera systems instantly capture a variety of data law enforcement needs to effectively evaluate incidents and

determine whether violations occurred, such as: Hi-resolution still images, including a wide angle image

of the incident scene and a zoomed image of the license plate

12 to 16 seconds of HD video detailing the incident

Date, time, location and bus route of each incident

All data is digitally signed, encrypted and secured at the moment of capture. It’s immediately transmitted to a central processing server, preventing interception and manipulation of the evidence while ensuring the highest level of protection to the chain of custody.

Page 15: PROGRAMOVERVIEW. OURMISSION Safeguarding your children with the industries first comprehensive stop arm enforcement solution, thus creating a deterrent.

VIOLATIONPROCESSING

Triple Verification: All incident data undergoes a comprehensive, triple verification review from our in-house processing specialists. Each incident is reviewed three times by three different specialists prior to submitting evidence packages to law enforcement.

Custom Criteria: Each client can determine the factors for processing specialists review – we don’t have a one-size-fits-all approach.

In-House Mailroom Services: Unlike competitors, all printing and mailing of documents related to violations are done in-house. No disruption of the chain of custody, and we maintain control of all data throughout the violation process.

Page 16: PROGRAMOVERVIEW. OURMISSION Safeguarding your children with the industries first comprehensive stop arm enforcement solution, thus creating a deterrent.

VIOLATORSUPPORTSERVICES

Call Center: Multi-lingual call center available 11 hours a day, five days a week, providing the public with an avenue to get their questions answered. Some 24,000 calls are received monthly – and nearly 98% of those calls can be handled without the need for local law enforcement involvement.

Online Support: www.PhotoNotice.com where violators can view the images and video associated with their violations, and make payments.
