Troopers using a high-tech radar system that can read license plates 1,000 feet away thought they might have a high-speed chase, a state representative police said. But the 2001 Acura pulled over as soon as the patrol car turned on its lights
he got away with a court date?
no impound? no cuffs?
doing the right thing might have saved this guy a lot of money/jail time, and maybe even his life
i doubt i would have stopped, but something catching your plate from 1000 feet = you're FUCKED
 
i call bullshit on the high-tech radar that reads plates. it might get a speed check. anything else would be called a camera with a zoom lens.
 
espeically if there is traffic...there is always the possibility of obstruction...hmmm...guess it would depend on where the cop was sitting too...
 
I was doing 126MPH in the SI when I blew past a trooper at 3AM in Texas back in 2003. He didn't even pull out of his spot.

so I kept going

in a Jay-Z song

"You were doing 65 in a 64,
licence and registration and step out of the car,
are you carrying a weapon on you I know allot of you are"
 
I heard "Son do you know what I'm stoppin' you for?"
"Cause I'm young and I'm black and my hat's real low
Do I look like a mind reader sir, I don't know
Am I under arrest or should I guess some mo'?"
"Well you was doin' fifty five in a fifty four"

while searching look what i found... 'slang translation' of the song... read the right side. funny shit. Jay-Z/ 99 Problems
 
"I ain't steppin out of shit
all my papers legit.
the glove compartment is locked
and so is the trunk in the back.
if you want to search, you gonna need a warrant for that."
was i close?
 
Actually... it was fifty-five in a fifty-fo

Not that it matters.

edit: Someone beat me to it already.

I ain't steppin outta shit, all my papers legit

well the glove compartment is locked and so's the trunk in the back and I know my rights so you're goin need a warrant for that

Aren't you sharp as a tack, you some kinda lawyer something, somebody important or something?

Naw I ain't passed the bar, but I know a lil bit, enough that you won't illegaly search my shit

we'll we'll see how smart you are when the K-9's come

I got 99 problems and a bitch ain't one
 
or to the ebonics challenged:

The year is '94 and I am driving with uncut drugs in the trunk of my car
In my rear view mirror I can see the police
I've got two choices: I can pull over the car or
Run away from the police by pressing the gas pedal hard
Now I don't want to have the police chase me down the highway
Plus I have got some money: I can fight the case in court
So I pull over to the side of the road
And I heard "Young man, do you know why I'm stopping you?"
"You're stopping me because I'm young and I'm black and my hat's real low.
Do I look like a mind reader sir, I don't know
Am I under arrest or should I guess some more?"
"Well you were driving fifty five miles per hour in a zone that is marked fifty four miles per hour."
Give me your license and registration and step out of the car.
Are you carrying a weapon on you? I know many black men do that."
"I am not getting out of my car! My papers are legitimate."
"Do you mind if I look around the car a little while?"
"Well, my glove compartment is locked and so is the trunk and the back
And I know my legal rights so you are going to need a warrant to search them."
"Aren't you the clever one! Are you a lawyer or something?
Or somebody important or something?"
"No, I haven't passed the test to be a lawyer, but I know a little bit
Enough that you won't illegally search my car!"
"Well see how smart you are when the drug smelling dog unit comes."
I got 99 problems but a woman isn't one of them
Play it!

They're in widespread use in the UK already- the standalone radar signs show your plate number as you go by.

is it like the camera traps on the tunnel in japan?
 
Dunno- I haven't heard anything about the Japanese version. I've just seen the license plate readers highlighted on the Discovery channel when they were talking about new exciting technology.
