Interestingly, at around the same time, the police started to fingerprint
stolen vehicles as a means of providing the necessary burdens of proof.
Consequently following that the TWOC (Taking Without Consent) merchants
began burning the cars rather than just abandoning them.
That such a logical progression was blatantly ignored at the time seemed
very blinkered, but then other issues were no doubt pertinent.
Regarding wanted posters.
Is there any differentiation between printed wanted posters and internet
published ones?
There is certainly a significant difference in distribution potential, so it
would seem natural to require a higher degree of need to publish a wanted
poster on the internet than run of 500 printed ones.
