Compact, Technology-Driven: New Tool Combines Messaging and Speed Display Into One Effective, Easy-to-Use Unit.

State College, PA … The all-new speedALERT-SZ from All Traffic Solutions brings together two of the most effective tools on the market-the SPEEDsentry® radar speed display and the speedALERT speed-dependent messaging system.  The result is a compact, powerful solution that makes light work of informing motorists of their speeds and delivering a targeted message to impact their behavior.

The speedALERT-SZ is perfect for school zones, campuses, industrial parks – any location that requires regular, targeted speed enforcement.

The features attracting the most attention are the space-saving, streamlined design of the sign and versatile programming options.  Messaging and speed display occur in a unit that measures just 30 x 40" tall, weighs only 48 pounds, and is mounted to a light post, telephone pole or other similar structure.  Despite the compact design, speed digits are 18" high and the full-matrix messaging display is graphics capable.  In terms of programming, all operations are performed using a PDA or PC, and setup is easy from the start.  A 365-day feature allows the user to create, reuse and modify annual schedules for different locations, as well as vary message operation by weekend, weekend, holiday or special event.  It is truly a "setup and go" system requiring only routine attention to make desired setting adjustments, reposition at a new location, or handle routine requirements.

Convenience, ease-of-use and effectiveness are signature of this new, innovative solution.

    MORE AERIAL WATERWAY FAILURES:
    There have been additional aerial waterway failures reported. 1 was in Southern California.at a 4th alarm fire just a few weeks ago. We will have more details on that soon.
    And this week in Minnesota, a ladder truck launched its waterway about 50 feet during a drill. No Firefighters or anyone else was injured or even close to where the waterway landed. They were flowing the waterway when they all heard a sound and the gauges went to zero. The FF’s shut the truck down and they saw a debris field….where the waterway landed.

    If your FD operates their own aerial or receives aerial services from a neighboring FD, it is critical that the below NIOSH FIREFIGHTER SAFETY DOCUMENT be reviewed immediately.

    REMINDER: The responsibility of setting up an aerial including the pinning of the waterway is a skill, one that is trained upon on and can only be preformed by those trained and qualified.
