detector van 

Detector vans where first introduced to the UK in 1952 by the BBC.The reason for these vans was to detect who is watching live broadcasting without a TV Licence.What the BBC didn't tell the population was that this was a load of pish.

In the 55 years that they have been prowling the streets of the UK,they have never taken anyone to court on the strenth of this detection equipment.
