Hello Everyone,
I wanted to read a number plate from a video. So I searched in the Internet and I came up with this website. I'm a senior engineering student and I was driving in the highway a month ago when a Hyundai car( maybe Santafe) hit my car(actually my mother's car) badly and then escaped. My insurance didn't accept the high recompense and they gave me a CCTV video and told me to find the plate number myself. The video is somehow not clear. I can recognize my car and the other clearly but I can not read the license plate. I want to kindly ask of any help.
I'm eagerly looking forward for any reply about a software to enhance the screenshot of video for figuring out the license plate.
Thanks

There are some forensic video enhancement programs out there that I've seen in cop magazines, one I recall is Amped 5... Not sure on the cost of it though. I think you will be better off trying to bring the footage to the police department and see if they can help you, they can get a arrest out of it as well if it was a hit and run.

File a police report if you haven't done so already. There are a lot of other ways to hunt down a hit-and-run driver than trying to make out a blurry licence plate.

Thanks for your reply! I have a complete file in the police department. They don't do anything. 5 police officers were at the place of accident. I couldn't move because my neck and back and knee were aching. After they helped me to get out of the car. I recognized the Hyundai has gone. They don't explain any more.
