How do you do a warrant for a device that alerts when a car on a hotlist transits an intersection?

Record the plates. Don’t alert, search. And just for a specific crime.

[tptacek]

The whole pitch for the cameras is alerting! The point is to interdict the cars right after they pass the camera.

[lokar]

That may be what police like, but in my town it’s sold to residents on solving crimes.

A stolen car is a crime though.

[lokar]

Sure. So file a request with a judge including evidence that the car has been stolen, and a reasonable time window and location.
