what does “doing drive-bys”mean?
“It could be Abra interrupted him before he got started. Look, you should take your time, take a good look around. You may want to wait until you’ve got some light. We’ll be doing drive-bys, but he’d be pretty damn stupid to come back at this point. It’s late,” Vinnie added, “but I don’t have a problem rousting a private investigator out of bed. I’ll follow up with you tomorrow, Eli. Do you want a lift home, Abra?”
“No thanks. You go ahead.”
With a nod, he took out a card. “Abra’s got one, but keep this around. You call me if you find anything missing, or have any more trouble. And if you pick up a board, we could see if you remember any of those lessons I gave you back in the day.”

It sounds like Vinnie is a police officer or some sort of law enforcement.
In this case, "doing drive-bys", means that they will be driving past the location every once in a while to see that everything is OK.
Hope this helps...
