Without evidence of an ACTUAL crime, the cops shouldn't be able to exercise the power of the state to make you do anything at all, including talk to them, show ID, turn over any possessions, or piss into a cup.

They do, its called a Plate Hunter...

It’s catching on with Law Enforcement agencies across the country that the Mobile Plate Hunter-900 can be used to help collect taxes, parking ticket fees and other revenues. With “hot lists” of license plates related to individuals with these types of violations, officers can find them anywhere, any time and respond accordingly.

Homeland Security applications of the Mobile Plate Hunter-900®, the most accurate and advanced Automatic License Plate Reader technology available, are increasing rapidly. The LPR system’s ability to read strings of alpha-numeric characters and compare them instantaneously to Hot Lists allows a Command Center to organize and strategize efforts in reaction to the information captured. A combination of mobile, patrol car-mounted MPH-900® License Plate Reader systems as well as fixed LPR systems— which can be mounted to bridges, gates and other high traffic areas—can help keep a tight watch on entire cities, ports, borders and other vulnerable areas. Even cargo container identifications can be read from cameras on aircraft 1500 feet in the air. And every LPR camera is capturing critical data such as color photos, date and time stamps, as well as GPS coordinates on every vehicle that passes or is passed. This incredible database provides a wealth of clues and proof, which can greatly aid Law Enforcement with:

> Pattern recognition
> Placing a suspect at a scene
> Watch list development
> Identifying witnesses
> Possible visual clues revealed within the image of a car’s immediate environment

Not to change the subject, but did anyone notice "produce" is spelled "produc" in paragraph 12 of the complaint?

Where is the response to the complaint or havent they issued one yet?
