Passing on the right? Changing lanes without signling? Shoot a dart at their car. Any car with 3 darts gets a ticket. glindsey

Seeing as how Prohibition wasn't repealed until 1933 "Gangsters" were a reality. The sources I have say that the term "white collar crime" wasn't even coined until 1939. Dept of Justice statistics show a pretty healthy homicide rate for that period http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/glance/tables/hmrttab.htm jsl151, you’d probably lose that bet.

I'm surprised something similar isn't used these days, as you'd have an instant tracking device, especially if you filled them with some Day-Glo or even phosphorescent ink.
