Scanning Plates

I couldn't find it but I've seen where Los Angeles was trying out some equipment on police squad cars that would automatically can license plates. The software looks to see if there are any warrant hits, etc for the cars owner. So it didn't surprise me to see that San Francisco was using the same technology to hunt down people with too many outstanding parking tickets.
