ANPR - Have Your Say
Discussion

Hence one of the questions on how long they can hold onto the data.
I learnt over the years that many of the "failing to stop" incidents were drivers who were uninsured, or over the drink limit. And nowadays add cloned plates to that.
So anything to get uninsured drivers, as well as the plate cloners, has to be as good thing?
Yes I agree that for those purposes it would be a good thing. But I, like many others, do go a bit over the speed limit from time to time, when conditions allow, in the right place when its appropriate. This, I fear will become the main use for ANPR if its rolled out, it will produce many convictions which will convince people that its doing a good job, and a lot of revenue.

If you're really clever in your data analysis, surely cloned plates won't work if Anpr is everywhere? If you see the original car in Cambridge, and twenty minutes later the plate pings in Oxford, the gendems can then pull both cars and arrest the crims?

"The group of around 25 police officers used ANPR during the routine exercise, pulling cars over and speaking to drivers through the window" "One Fixed Penalty Notice was issued for a coronavirus lockdown breach"

Helping a friend move from Sussex to Dorset so that was perfectly justifiable. ANPR set up just further up the road, Sussex plates, got pulled. They knew.
It took all of 5 minutes out of my day.
I'm still all for ANPR.
The behaviour from far too many officers of all ranks during this past year hasn't exactly shown the police in the best light with too many instances of them belligerently attempting to enforce non-existent laws.
This is where someone makes a "hilarious" quip about paranoia, but seriously, leave me alone, stop spying on me.

Maybe they will force everyone to display clearly and in an approved font, their personal registration number. All thanks to feeble minded people like 2SB.
Steady old boy. 
I've been accused of a lot of things but never that. Did you not read that I'm a CCTV installer and that my comments were bait for the excitables!

Get a bicycle, no ANPR on your lycra clad buttocks
The whom motorway Network is covered in ANPR and cameras, dont worry about it.
You'll be next. They will mandate a registration number on your left cheek.The whom motorway Network is covered in ANPR and cameras, dont worry about it.

The slow, quiet transition to "We have now integrated average speed checking availability within the ANPR network" would be the only thing to concern me.
We (in the traffic industry) already use ANPR for origin/destination surveys, and journey time monitoring, so it wouldn't be a big (technical) step.
Tinfoil hats, don't speed, blah blah, something something.
Software update? Nah will NEVER happen of course ...We (in the traffic industry) already use ANPR for origin/destination surveys, and journey time monitoring, so it wouldn't be a big (technical) step.

There are many perfectly reasonable and highly powerful objections to blanket ANPR and vehicle tracking.
"It stops me from driving my car quickly" is surely the weakest of them.
So if they pinged you based on average speed between 2 points how would you argue against it? The tech never fails of course #guilty"It stops me from driving my car quickly" is surely the weakest of them.

I reckon if there was a car running about with cloned plates at the opposite end of the country you might get some impressive speeding tickets if you both go out for a drive at the same time! Chris
