"There's a new twist to a crime-fighting staple. Police have long tracked license plates to help them find criminals. Now they're adding new, high-tech gadgets that will help them do that with more speed and efficiency -- without lifting a finger. Local law enforcement officers are turning to a new video surveillance technology that scans license plates and alerts officers to warrants, criminal backgrounds or stolen vehicles in seconds."
