You can import the data from the Electronic Citation (ELCI) form into the Alcohol incident form and print out any of the five reports. Electronic data transmission of the Alcohol Incident form is not available at this time.
Amended crash form
This form is the same as the MV4000e, with the addition of a Document Number Override field. This field contains the original document number that is amended. The crash data from this form is also submitted to the DMV FTP server.
Attachment form
The Attachment form is an optional form that may be used by your agency to facilitate the transfer of non-TraCS files from the field unit to the administrative workstation. This form is provided as a convenience for your agency. (It is only used locally within your agency.) The form is designed to be flexible and meet a variety of agency needs. The Attachment form can be used to send a fingerprint file, a work report in Word format, an excel spreadsheet or virtually any other file on your laptop.

Crash (MV4000e) form
This is the electronic version of the Wisconsin Motor Vehicle Accident Report form. Reportable crashes can be submitted to the DMV electronically. A crash data file and tiff file is transferred to the DMV FTP server. This data is then uploaded daily to the corporate database. Law enforcement is able to archive crash data on their servers and generate copies as necessary. The MV4000e contains all the fields on the paper MV4000 arranged in a different order.
Driver condition and behavior form (MV3141)
Wisconsin law, SS 343.16 (5) (6) allows the Department of Transportation to reexamine drivers when the Department has “good cause” to believe that the driver is incompetent or otherwise not qualified to be licensed. The Department determines what is “good cause.” The narrative should include the law enforcement officer’s specific observations and any actions and/or comments by the driver.
