Abstract: A vehicle immobilizer system comprised of at least one deployable, remotely actuated lift system. The lift system is transported by a movable frame which can be remotely operated. The movable frame suspends the lift system during transport. However, during the lifting operation, the lift system bears the weight of the vehicle, while the movable frame does not. As a result, the movable frame can be of lightweight construction while the lift system can be robust. The lift system supports a universal docking plate which is designed to contact the suspect vehicle and suspend it without damaging it.
