Remember the Terminator Motorcycles that were a blast in Terminator Salvation? Well, they are basically the evil version of the Scarab self-driven police chase assistant concept you see here. Designed by Carl Archambeault, the Scarab is a 100% electric self-driven robotic chase assistant which hopes to lower the number of police causalities in high speed chases. Being lightweight and compact to help it be extra zippy, this zero-emission vehicle will sit idle beside a patrol car, and whenever a speeding vehicle is detected, the officer in charge of the Scarab “tags” the speeding vehicle with a radar gun. Once tagged, a signal is sent to Scarab for it to hunt the offending vehicle down like a relentless bloodhound. Bear in mind the Scarab has no weapons on it, but we do not rule out the possibility of it being equipped with an EMP-type device to disable speeding drivers who are adamant on not co-operating.
