This is still in testing but expect it on a cop car near you soon ...
as soon as they justify the cost.

I noticed what appeared to be a radar gun mounted on the left rear bumper of a
Fairfax County Police car the other day. I wonder if that was the camera to
which you're referring.

Well...now I know. Glad you mentioned it.

Nincdepoop should get a charge out of that privacy invasion!

I love the way they keep harping on it's ability to find stolen cars.
BFD, and bull****.. This is going to quickly morph into finding parking
ticked violators, tax evaders, and any other violation involving not
giving money to the state or town. They already use these in big cities
in conjunction with tow services and just drive around looking for folks
who owe parking tickets and such.

To make Plume happy I am sure they will also use it to catch child
support deadbeats. If you pop on that in a traffic stop you are going
away too in Florida. (for the legal eagles, it is an open contempt of
court warrant)

Which has nothing to do with being stopped BECAUSE your insurance may
or may not be out of date.
