Kawasaki Police 1400 from Kelly’s Kawasaki, AZ

admin — Wed, 09 Feb 2011 16:46:28 +0000

Introducing the Kawasaki POLICE1400 ENFORCER, the next step in the evolution of Law Enforcement vehicles.

Performance comes naturally to Kawasaki, seeing as how we already had the performance part of the equation nailed with the ZX™-14 sportbike. The bike’s amazing 1,352cc engine and unique
monocoque frame lent themselves perfectly to an exciting new class of sport touring motorcycles. The Concours 14 ABS was born and immediately rose to the top of the critic’s lists.

Now the next-generation Concours 14 benefits from an entire laundry list of comfort, convenience and safety items, carefully engineered to surpass all expectations of what a perfect sport tourer should be.
Based upon the highly acclaimed 2011 Concours 14 ABS, Kelly’s Kawasaki offers the 2011 POLICE 1400 ENFORCER,
built for operator comfort and to withstand the high demands of the tough everyday job.

The POLICE 1400 ENFORCER, already in use by several Law Enforcement Agencies nationwide, can be equipped according to any local or regional regulations and fulfills the highest standards.

Key Features:

• Kawasaki Traction Control (KTRC)
• Kawasaki Advanced Co-Active-Braking Technology (K-Act)
• Heated Grips
• Electrically-Adjustable Windshield
• Heat-Dissipating Bodywork

Michigan State Police go LED!

admin — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 16:36:26 +0000

12/30/09 – A technological advance by a Livingston County-based company is expected to save the Michigan State Police hundreds of thousands of dollars in the next few years. Whelen Engineering of Brighton developed new LED lights for use atop troopers patrol units that will replace the current incandescent lighting. It’s expected the new LED units, which will fit inside the existing overhead red beacon, will last ten years longer than the current bulbs. Combined with the fact that the new LED lights are essentially maintenance free and have no need for heavy-duty wiring and special switches, officials expect to save more than $220,000 over a four-year period. Patrol cars will be fitted with the new LED overhead light kits when there is a light failure. The LED lights will also be installed in the approximately 250 new patrol cars that come into service every year. (JK)

California EMS License Plate Program

admin — Thu, 24 Dec 2009 20:40:19 +0000

EMS License Plate Program Information

The Emergency Medical Services Authority has developed a specialty license plate to honor and recognize EMS professionals in California. Creating a specialty plate will support and recognize healthcare professionals who work in the emergency setting. These plates will also increase the visibility of EMS in California.

The standard EMS License Plate will be $50 initially and $40 for renewals. Personalized plates (new or conversions) are $90 with a $70 annual renewal fee. These funds may be used in any of the following areas: public information and prevention, recognition program, an EMS memorial fund, AED programs, a trauma registry and prevention program, charitable programs or programs to enhance EMT applicants statewide.

EMSA must collect 7,500 pre-paid applications before the plate is produced and distributed to applicants. This process could take as long as a year, which could delay applicants receiving their plates. If EMSA cannot collect 7,500 applications a full refund will be given to the applicant. A full description of the program is available here.

We now have a plate that has been given clearance by DMV and CHP. You may order your plate by filling out the application form and sending it along with the appropriate payment to the address shown on the application form.

Contact Adam Morrill at adam.morrill@emsa.ca.gov or Robin Robinson at robin.robinson@emsa.ca.gov with any questions regarding the program.
