My area has a camera where an accident happened. Unfortunately the photo was of such poor quality it was utterly useless. The local paper ran a front page article asking the public for help identifying the vehicle after 3 months. My coworker and myself came up with 5-6 possible cars based off the photo. The sad thing is my coworker knew the guy who was injured and I ride past the spot everyday after work. I wonder how much our county payed for a worthless piece of equipment?
