What's crazy to me is how this insurance database lookup even makes sense... Most insurance companies give you a grace period to add new vehicles if you have an existing policy. For mine in Washington, I have 14 days to tell my insurance if I've bought a new car, and it's covered under my existing policy until then. Flock would have no way of looking up this information and has no justification to flag a vehicle like this...
What's crazy to me is that someone, somewhere thought big brother was necessary for enforcing car insurance at all.
Bold of you to assume cops use logic
