What these cameras actually do
Automated license plate readers (ALPRs) like those sold by Flock Safety aren’t normal traffic cameras. Each one reads every passing plate, stamps it with a time and location, and stores it in a searchable database — often shared across agencies. Across Nevada, that’s 963 points quietly building a record of residents’ movements. See how the tech works and where your data goes.
