License plate reader rules are a state-by-state patchwork: data retention, access limits, and public
records rights. Every state page below links its public records law and what's reported so far.
How to read these pages: each page identifies your state's public records law (what you'd cite in a
FOIA request) and what's reported about ALPR rules there. None of this is legal advice — for the exact
statute text, check your state legislature's site. To get your city's actual policy, use the
FOIA generator.
