“You might have an officer who’s good on the street, but who doesn’t work regularly with all the statutes. Or you may have a junior officer who pulls over a vehicle and has to search for multiple offenses. The software can help both officers move forward dramatically faster than with the statute book.
Officer safety may be improved as well. Say an officer pulls over a vehicle. With the book, the officer has their head down searching for the right statute while also trying to keep an eye on the people in the car ahead. The officer using the software can simply click responses to prompts on a dashboard-level laptop. It’s easier to keep an eye on the situation.”

“This is a tool that can help officers present the strongest possible case by tapping all applicable statutes, not only the more prominent ones. This enables improved efficiency in researching cases for prosecutors.”

“When one of my Lieutenants and I first tried the software at a conference for police chiefs, we looked at each other and the light bulbs went on at the same time. We immediately recognized the usefulness of the programs, particularly for training.
Say an officer has questions concerning drug abuse prevention and control. The officer would have to open their Florida book to Statute 893 and then wade through 35 pages of dense legal text. Or make a few clicks on your computer in response to plain-language prompts.
These programs are imminently simple.”

“Rookies have to go back to the car and look things up. It can take a long time and it’s easy to get confused. If you’re by yourself, the pressures and frustrations add up. The software can help an officer get the answer in seconds without the embarrassment of asking too many questions.”
