Flock & ALPR Cameras in Brighton, Michigan
Volunteers have reported 18 automated license plate readers in and around Brighton — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.
Jurisdiction · by recorded street address
The 18 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Brighton, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 4 of them sit inside Brighton itself.
The rest sit in Green Oak Charter Township (9), Brighton Charter Township (3), Genoa Charter Township (1), Hartland Township (1).
12 of them name an operator in the record: Livingston County Sheriff's Office (8), Brighton Area Schools (2), Green Oak Township Police Department (2). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.

What’s watching Brighton
These aren’t red-light cameras. Automated license plate readers like Flock Safety’s photograph every plate that passes, log the time and place, and store it in a searchable database that’s often shared far beyond Brighton — here’s where that data goes. Counts cover cameras reported closest to Brighton (within ~20 km), so nearby towns share the same corridors. Spot one that’s missing? Report it on DeFlock.
