Important role of the Police recognised at Award Ceremony
Prince Michael has recognised the important role of the Police at his annual award ceremony.
Operation SNAP is a web-based system which allows the public to submit photographic evidence of bad driving to the police. Such evidence includes video and photographic evidence from dashcams, helmet cameras and personal video,
Utilising processes and resources already established in the safety camera programme, this was rolled out across Wales in April 2017. Key to the project has been the development of a secure method of receiving third party media which is acceptable as evidence, whilst at the same time making the process straightforward for the public.
It is now being adopted nation-wide.
