I'm highly skeptical of any solution that involves nothing but more paperwork. What if car manufacturers just changed their designs so that catalytic converters weren't so easy to steal that a drug addled person could do it en masse with a battery powered tool? Like maybe we can just nip this problem at the source so that everyone else doesn't have to change how they do business.
