-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Ohio Highway Patrol Scans License Plates Date: Wed, 9 Jun 2004 10:16:08 -0400 (EDT) From: Joshua Bentham <jb@private> To: declan@private Declan, Thought this would be of interest to the list: http://www.nbc4columbus.com/news/3396314/detail.html "The Ohio State Highway Patrol will use two scanners on turnpike gates and two scanners in patrol cars for four months. The system recognizes license plates registered with a national crime database that tracks stolen cars and serious crimes... ...The patrol will report to lawmakers by year's end and won't implement the system or expand it without approval by the Controlling Board or the Legislature, said patrol spokesman Capt. John Born." --Josh ---- "Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote." _______________________________________________ Politech mailing list Archived at http://www.politechbot.com/ Moderated by Declan McCullagh (http://www.mccullagh.org/)
