No; law enforcement officers do not use a standardized paper or electronic citation form to document violations of State statutes.
Does the state have an electronic citation data collection system?
Yes. Crossroads software data collection tool now being used for electronic crash data capture also has a citation data collection module which is being used by many of the agencies using Crossroads. The Nevada Citation and Accident Tracking System (NCATS) citation component is not currently operational.
What percent of citations are collected electronically?
Unknown
Does the state have standardized coding of violations?
No information
Does the state have a process/system for transferring citation data to the courts electronically?
Currently, most of the courts are not accepting or cannot accept electronic citations. Therefore, most law enforcement agencies are submitting paper citations or hard copies of e-citations to the courts.
Does the state have a centralized court information system containing court docket information?
No
Does the state have a process/system to electronically transfer court dispositions to/from the driver history file electronically?
Posting convictions to the driver history is mostly a manual process; four courts report convictions to the DMV through electronic means. Crashes are also posted manually.
Does the state have an impaired driver tracking system?
No
Are there any plans to improve the citation/adjudication system?
The Nevada Courts' System (NCS) project is a centralized Case Management System housed at the AOC with case information being distributed across a secured wide area network using CourtView software. The Nevada Citation and Accident Tracking System (NCATS) design calls for all electronically issued citations to be sent to NCATS, then into the Administrator of the Courts (AOC's) court case management system for forwarding to the court of jurisdiction. This would provide the foundation for a complete citation database, but that component of the NCATS design is not operational, thus no central repository has been created as of year 2010; however, the state still plans to go forward with that effort. The state also plans to create a legislative agenda for 2011 session (including implementing a citation based administrative fee and redirecting existing fees away), to make NCATS and other safety data related efforts monetarily self-sufficient.
