Vehicle License Plate Identification in the Event of a Road Accident
In the event of a road accident in Frosinone and its province with an incomplete, illegible or unknown license plate, Piccaro Investigazioni adopts three professional investigative methodologies to accurately trace the identity of the vehicle involved.
1. Incomplete Plate – Alphanumeric Simulation and Comparative Analysis
When to apply:When you only have part of the license plate, with one or more letters or numbers missing, for example due to partial view, partial shots or annotation errors.
Working method:
The partial license plate sequence provided by the customer is processed by replacing the missing characters with the “*” symbol (e.g. G* 80* NX), generating all possible alphanumeric combinations relating to those positions. Each combination is associated with a brief technical sheet with the main vehicle data: – Possible make and model – Region of registration – Displacement (cc), power (kW), weight (kg), fuel type (petrol/diesel/liquid gas), etc.
Based on the number of missing characters (letters or numbers), the system generates a variable volume of results, organized in cuts of 10, 25, 100, 500 or 1000 plates. The customer can request the export of the desired cut or rely on an assisted analysis by us. The comparison between the simulated plates and the vehicle searched for is done through technical analysis, comparing the brand, model, region of registration and technical characteristics.

- PRA vehicle inspection consistent
Times and conditions:
- Time: 1–5 working days
- Costs: from €50.00 to €500.00 VAT, based on the number of simulations and technical analysis to be performed
How to request the service in Frosinone: Send the partial sequence via email, WhatsApp or contact form. We will provide you with a preliminary evaluation and a personalized quote.
2. Illegible License Plate – Forensic Image Analysis
When to apply:When the license plate is present but not readable due to blur, poor lighting, overexposure, distance or vehicle movement, such as in CCTV or dash cam videos.
Working method:We apply video and image forensics techniques to increase the readability of the license plate:
- Blur Removal (deblur)
- Exposure, contrast and highlights correction
- Resolution increase with AI super-resolution
- Video stabilization and frame enhancement
- Straightening the frame
- License plate isolation and OCR reading
- Visual example:
Results available:
- Optimized image with readable sequence highlight
- Complete or partial decoding of the license plate
- Forensic technical report suitable for use in legal, judicial or insurance fields, upon request
Times and conditions:
- Time: 2–10 working days
- Costs: Variable based on the quality and complexity of the material
How to request the service in Frosinone: Send us the video or images via email or contact form, indicating the date, time and place. You will receive a free preliminary analysis and quote.
3. Unknown License Plate – Investigative Investigation
When it applies:When there is no visual information available to reconstruct the license plate of the vehicle involved, such as in cases where there is a lack of video footage, direct witnesses or other traceable elements.
Working Method: An investigative investigation is initiated. Activities may include:
- Inspections and technical surveys at the accident site with collection of traces
- Chemical and micro-scientific analyses of vehicle evidence: Analysis of fragments (paint, plastic, metal) and fluids collected at the scene of the accident, aimed at identifying the materials and comparing them with those of suspicious vehicles, detecting traces of glues, non-original paints or anomalous treatments, analysing any liquid leaks (oil, coolant) attributable to specific models, using advanced techniques such as FTIR spectroscopy, SEM microscopy and GC-MS.
- Video acquisition and analysis of the area
- Reconstruction of vehicular and temporal flows
- Identification and interview of direct witnesses
- Technical inspection of the identified vehicle, with assessment of material damage or subsequent repair of damage
- Collaboration with lawyers or judicial authorities, if required
Results available:
- Vehicle identification or list of compatible vehicles
- Collection of elements useful for reporting or requesting compensation
- Investigative report suitable for use in legal, judicial or insurance fields, upon request
Times and conditions:
- Time: 3–10 working days
- Costs: on estimate, based on the complexity of the intervention
How to request the service in Frosinone: Contact us indicating the date, time and place of the accident via email, WhatsApp or contact form. You will receive a confidential assessment and a detailed operational proposal.
Reception in Frosinone: Reception by appointment at Viale Roma 56, Frosinone.
