Do the vans pursue and do flashy lights and whatnot, or do they just pass information on?

We need to go back to the days of Mad Max 1... Feral bikies battling it out with the cops on the highways, that'd be shitloads more fun for both sides!

This is what the governments of the world are trying to do.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panopticon

As documented in this book.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Traveler_(novel)

See how our freedom is being taken away by our vehicles being photographed, when will the horror all end when will all the good people be allowed to drive around in peace.

If you don't want other people to know what you are doing then stop using the internet, credit cards, banks and anything else the stores information about you and live off the grid.

Remember - if you have nothing to hide you have nothing to fear.

Haha, yeah if you got to hoon the Interceptor it might be worth it.

Plate recognition is old news, man, on facebook it scans pictures of people's faces and suggests friends to 'tag', and hasn't got one wrong that I have seen. So that means as soon as a picture is uploaded, it is recognising people's faces and linking their names to the picture.

Won't be long before every public place you go, you'll be getting tracked via camera, vehicle, transaction etc.

I don't mind too much as I'm actually not that interesting. I pay my taxes and live clean. Some people wouldn't like the way it's going though...

I fail to understand how people can be scared of "big brother" when there is prolly more to fear from joe hacker esp the ammount of info people put on public display on the web....The ammount of info some people have here on kiwibiker makes me

i am not saying that is not the case( and i am sure there are many parrallels) and there may be a time soon where the intrusion becomes too much.But i think at this point in time most people have nothing to fear from big brother in NZ.As i say prolly more to fear from other "white collar" sources,esp the ammount of info a lot of peole give away

I think there are too many people taking to many "truths" from Hollywood movies.
