True, and don’t we pay $200,000 a month for cctv?
Cameras aren’t everywhere, and it’s par for the course for criminal’s bike to have number plates obscured.
The victims are so young. I hope the CCTV footage was strong enough to id the vehicle, usually tho, there is a possibility of a stolen vehicle being used for transportation. Vehicle road check-points need to be in use every week. No doubt, in my mind quite a few uniformed police officers will be on duty new year,s eve with all of the activities going on..
Find my IPhone. GPS. Find Friends. The thief has no chance. Dumb dumb.
