Back in the day, we did our DWI reports on Texas Department of Public Safety forms when we used to type our reports. Years later when we computerized, we went through different iterations, but we finally ended up using ILEADS. In ILEADS, we could do ALL of our reports, including DWIs. To add, we...

I feel meek and substandard now that I had retired from a department that uses HDs for their motor unit. I'll just continue to cower in my corner and attempt to use the minimum amount of oxygen possible.

Our motor units, like many other departments, work traffic enforcement, accident investigation, dignitary escort and protection and memorial escorts so the speed of these HDs really isn't a factor. As relatively slow as they are compared to Kawasakis and BMWs, they get up and move enough for us...especially...
