Recently, the State Police have been impounding cars that aren't registered.
Remember, driving on roads is not a wackado right but a privilege. Hopefully, this keeps the nutters away from our county and in the backwoods they love so much.
The Grand Traverse Sheriff’s Office is preparing to deploy a new technology in fighting crime: license plate-reading cameras that can provide real-time alerts when cars that are stolen or involved in a crime or AMBER alert travel within the community. The cameras can also capture other vehicle information – including make, model, color, and features like roof racks and bumper stickers – in a searchable format for law enforcement. Sheriff’s Office representatives told Garfield Township trustees – who approved installing 14 cameras this week – that the technology could be used to solve crimes ranging from kidnappings to property crimes to hit-and-runs.
