    That’s not a modern vehicle being chased though.

    Besides, the US isn’t a surveillance state, it’s just too spread out for that.

      So, once upon a time, I got a peek behind the scenes of the automatic readers for license plates. Unless you’re living in a very rural area, and I’m talking all you see around you is crop fields or trailer parks and dollar generals, you’ve probably passed a few of them. That was about 6 years ago, so I would bet there are even more of them out on the roadways now.

      You could probably get to bubba’s house and hide, but they’ll know the general area you’re in, down to a twenty mile radius or so .

      Oh my poor sweet summer child, any town over 2k pop and every highway already has cameras whether you notice or not. You’re not getting in or around anything of use if you’re avoiding those. I’m in a town with less than 6k in a rural area, can’t go to the gas station without passing 3.
