Brits Employ Bait Cars in West Yorkshire

Although they call 'em "capture cars" ("bait cars" wouldn't be nearly sporting enough, would it, old chap?), the British have begun employing wired autos to catch would-be thieves in West Yorkshire. Plus, they've added a twist they're handing out stickers to the citizenry with verbiage to the effect of "this might be a bait car," thus making potential hooligans think twice about the cars they choose to burgle.
