While drones and the views they provide aren't necessarily new technology, Utah Transit Authority police officers using them is something that is.
SALT LAKE CITY — While drones and the views they provide aren't necessarily new technology, Utah Transit Authority police officers using them is something that is.
"With the amount of rails we have, thousands of miles of rails and roadways that our buses travel on, the drones allow us to get to places that are remote and a lot more difficult for our officers to deploy to," said UTA Police Lt. Todd Hewitt. If he were in a more remote area, though, it would have taken more time for a human officer to see what was happening. In those cases, a drone is faster to get that initial information.
"Hopefully, that will convince them to leave the railway, allow us to make contact with them, and get them the help they need," Hewitt expressed.
