    Runaway Cars Tagged to Stop Chases

    Feb. 3, 2005 — A paintball-like technology could end car chases in Los Angeles, and maybe across the country, if a system being tested in Southern California delivers what the company that makes it promises.


    The Los Angeles Police Department is testing a new secret weapon to halt high-speed pursuits: smart darts.


    The LAPD will use air-propelled miniature baseball size "tags" equipped with a global positioning system. The officers fire the darts, which stick to a fleeing motorist's car, and within minutes can find and track the suspect's location.
