If raids on various bars and BYOB restaurants and the new scanners at EV1 weren’t enough of a crime deterrent, the Evanston Police Department has now acquired an automated license plate reader to digitally scan and store plates’ numbers as the police car drives by. The scanner’s database can inform police whether a car is stolen or belongs to someone on a warrant. With such technology at their hands, maybe next time if a pedestrian gets hit by a car the police will actually be able to figure out who did it.
