What Is This All About?

[OttoMan]

I was getting out of Bass Pro parking lot area, right behind Bass Pro nearby that Hotel on North Brown Rd. This guy, a civilian vehicle, had these cameras on his car. I couldn't see no sign of Government Oficial around his car. Is this allowed to have in our personal cars? - I mean, it is weird though... - What is he trying to get on video?

(Note: I crystallized or blurred his TAG number...)

Good chance that's a parking lot patrol, AKA boot car.

The google cars have a big pod on top and with big google billboard.

Didn't have any sign, or inside light as such or even on top. He drove off toward Lawrenceville, and I was like "What in the world is that?"

Most of the ones I've seen use magnet signs. Let's them change them for the lot they're patrolling to look more "official".

Repo man or bounty hunter. License plate scanners. See them on wreckers often.

Looks like a repo car setup to scan license plates?
