Anyone might wonder how often they are caught on police cameras that operate 24/7. I spent a day driving, and over a month trying to get the answer.

Thanks. Pleasantly surprised that there are not too many ALPRs nearby me according to deflock.me. I was thinking, though, what about privately owned ALPRs to track known enforcement vehicles. I didn’t know what laws come into play there (or what unequal enforcement). The photos on the article do look high quality though, definitely beyond a Pi camera board pointed out a window. OTOH tagging “purple bumper sticker” or “bike rack” honestly doesn’t sound that far beyond OpenCV or AI tools these days.
Well, no ALPRs that anyone has clocked yet. The map does not show areas that are or are not checked, yet. They are working on it. You could drive around and look for “Penguin-*” BT devices.
Not illegal to run an ALPR, as evidenced by Flock rolling this shit out nationwide. This video gives you a good look at the current gen, will probably change as they improve.
