I found an article on BigThink called "GPS Tracking 'Bullets' Could Help Reduce Car Chases." Police departments and state patrol agencies are apparently testing out Starchase, which is a gun that they put on police cars and it shoots bullets that stick to the cars and can tell the police where the suspect is. The aim is to stop car chases, but so far only one out of four bullets are sticking to the test cars. Also, the system and bullets are very expensive, so it seems like there is still a lot of work to be done. I think this is great because car chases are really dangerous and not always effective, so this system can potentially make catching criminals easier.
