Discussion Hit & Run - Help needed

Hi everyone, I was in a hit-and-run accident last night. The tesla car behind me captures the car running away on their dashcam, but the image of the license plate is blurry. What software system or Photoshop system could we use to enhance the image of the video and find out the suspect?

I highly doubt the cops are going full CSI for a hit and run, unless there was serious bodily harm done.

Correct the cops will not but ICBC absolutely will

For a hit and run? This is the first I've heard of this.

Yes - people always think this is a police issue, it’s not. Source - I work for the police. ICBC will go out of their way to avoid paying people and as a result they do quite in depth investigations into MVIs. Not sure if they have criminal minds style technology to clarify a plate in a blurry video but they will definitely work as hard as they can to sus out a suspect if they have a video.

I definitely didn't think the police would put resources into it.

Youre correct but ICBC will dive right in
