Driving somewhere? There's a gov't record of thatAssociated Press, ANNE FLAHERTY 17 July 2013 WASHINGTON (AP) - Chances are, your local or state police departments have photographs of your car in their files, noting where you were driving on a particular day, even if you never did anything wrong. Using automated scanners, law enforcement agencies across the country have amassed millions of digital records on the location and movement of every vehicle with a license plate, according to a study published Wednesday by the American Civil Liberties Union. Affixed to police cars, bridges or buildings, the scanners capture images of passing or parked vehicles and note their location, uploading that information into police databases. Departments keep the records for weeks or years, sometimes indefinitely. news.yahoo.com/driving-somewhere-theres-govt-record-140052644.html

Support your local Militia! If none in town start one! These rolling cmeras in most cases are instaled in a car with software to recognize the tag numbers of alerted vehicles from robberies, stolen cars, drive-by shooters,ect. The key to them should be to put two officers into a car, an expense most smaller cities can't afford. So the one driver who is dodging cell phone users, jay walkers, and responding to calls misses 2/3 of the alerts. While some areas have the ability to download the data near time most start fresh daily. Another expensive toy to replace the interested cop on the beat.
However! In my town the police chief has routed those traffic light gotcha cameras to the command center where a non-cop is hired to watch for things. So watch those rolling stops or get a blue light special a few miles down the roadif you get to Fayette-nam
