I think the solution is simple - make it legal to hide your license plate, but make the hiders required to be remotely openable by an authorized law enforcement user. The plate hider should keep an audit log of the time, name, and badge number of the cop that required it to be opened. Anyone who wants to read license plates for a private purpose (not law enforcement) can either ask you nicely to open the hider, or screw off.
- intrasight 11mo agoThen we just get rid of license plates and have them implemented with digital telemetry. Which is probably gonna happen regardless.
- fragmede 11mo agoyou know about tpms serial numbers, yeah?
