Police cars are being outfitted with multiple highly-advanced cameras that can automatically read and process license plates while the office is driving or cruising the parking lot. This system allows the officer to do download the latest hot list of "stolen, wanted, etc." tag numbers. When the system runs a plate on the hot list the officer is notified by a audible sound from the Car PC. With this technology police officer can run up to 3000 plates in an hour!

Pretty cool technology at use.

 

That's not that new. A few of the FL police departments have had this for a few years. NYC as well.

 

I saw a special about this on TV like 2 years ago. I didnt know that the technology was being used already.

 

wow dont let your tags expire

 

sweet now they won't have to follow me around as long when they run my tags, then turn off when i come up clean.
