(prHWY.com) November 5, 2012 - Fort Worth, TX -- Ft. Worth, Texas - October 31, 2012--Digital Recognition Network (
http://www.drndata.com), the world leader in license plate identification,
asset recovery solutions and fraud mitigation reports that a little known and rarely discussed attribute of license plate identification technology is the ability to locate a vehicle's location, which in turn allows a lender to often get in touch with the vehicle owner holding the loan. Doing this, allows both parties to reach an equitable asset recovery solution, often without repossessing the vehicle. This keeps the driver in the car while also maximizing asset value for the lender. Looking at the broader picture license plate identification also keeps interest rates lower because lenders costs are lower and that helps everyone.
"I don't know of any lender that really wants to repossess a vehicle," said Chris Metaxas, CEO of DRN. "It's a lose-lose situation for everyone. "The lender has to realize all the costs associated with late or no payments, the cost of sending a truck out to get the vehicle and the significant expense of preparing and then selling that vehicle on the market," he said. "
License plate identification makes it so lenders can get in touch with drivers, and they often reach a solution," Metaxas explained. The lender gets the bad debt off the books immediately, which lowers costs and the driver doesn't lose the vehicle."
