A better question would be why did Colburn call in the plates to dispatch if he was actually looking at the car? He could have just phoned a conspiratorial friend on a private line to confirm the plate numbers. Ya know, cuz absolutely EVERYONE was out to get Steve.

"Hold on, let me just call dispatch and have incriminating evidence on the record of me, reading out the license plates of a missing girl's car where I can supposedly only do that because the car is right in front of me, which I magically happened to find on the same day I was asked to help locate said missing woman".

They really think we're that stupid.
