CHP is getting a lot of new stuff. My Dad is an officer in the North Sac office.

He gets a new thing in his squad car tomorrow. He told me that it is a camera hooked up to a computer that has every stolen car's license plate number in it from California. The camera is always scanning license plates and the computer reads it. When it finds a stolen license plate, the screen will flash red.

And BTW. CHP doesn't only patrol the Highway. People are too often mistaken by this.

That is really awesome. I hope they can implement that in as many cars as possible. Might make for much faster recoveries and significantly greater chances of recovery too, good stuff.
