TIVO FOR COPS

Sounds...interesting.

I've never felt that videos in police cars are practical, and videos can be interpreted in numerous ways for and against the Officers.

On a hardware note: the police cars I drive already have a computer in the glove box (for the flat screen data terminal set in the dash), three seperate radios, light controls, P.A. controls, LO-JACK, and some cars have another tracking device receiver for bank robberies. The trunk is filled with the more radio equipment, flares, medical bag, spike strips, less-lethal gun, and the Officer's personal gear. Where will all this new video equipment go? There's no room! And the Crown Vic's electrical system is already so lousy and over-taxed that adding even more equip. to it will cause even greater headaches.

Oh well...

Sounds like all those systems need better integration.

It is not a new concept, but maybe putting in a police car is.
