Yes indeed. When the Battalion Chief gets behind the wheel or receives a call, that appears on the MDC screen and they see who is on the run, plus they also hear the vocal dispatch over the car radio. All he or she does is touch the screen with a finger, where it indicates, "Responding".
There isn't any need for the BC to be typing or looking up anything, while the car is moving. If they have to do something like that, then they pull over in a safe area and conduct that operation.
Firecaptain, yes I do have photos of that location and apparatus.
