Pretty nifty, but I guess law enforcement had better come up with something better than spike strips.

Seen 'em. Brilliant idea! I think you'll see these pervade racing in the near future, due to weight savings over pneumatic tires.

EMP is poised to replace stopstrips very soon anyway.

Are you serious about that or just BSing? Seems like an effective EMP stopper would be a couple of orders of magnitude more expensive than stopstrips.
