When the license plate is nonreflective, the number plate will be blurry in the dark environment, so that the traffic camera can’t shot the numbers of the license plate, and the victim can’t see the license plate clearly and remember the number to call the police. If the license plate is reflective, then the accident of hit and run will reduce in the place which has a traffic camera.
