The GTBM Info-Cop system offers a unique feature called Error-Correction that ensures all the information entered on a traffic citation is 100% accurate and all the copies are completely legible. Another popular feature is the 30-second turnaround time it takes to issue a citation, which translates into officers returning to duty quicker.
