• Abstract:
  This Traffic Tech briefly summarizes a larger report, State of Knowledge and Practice for Using Automated License Plate Readers for Traffic Safety Purposes, which gathered information and insight into law enforcement implementation and use of automatic license plate readers (ALPRs) for traffic safety purposes, with emphasis detecting drivers with revoked, suspended, or restricted licenses. Evidence gleaned from the case studies provides additional indicators to support the effectiveness of ALPR for traffic safety purposes—when viewed in terms of efficiency and productivity gains as well as improvements in traffic safety by culling vehicles that are more prone to crash risk.
