Arizona will never do that. They're in love with the damned things here because they can take pictures of Mexicans that don't exist...I dunno.

Those cameras are GOOD cameras, and unless your plate is obscured, they're gonna read it. I manage an imaging and data capture vendor where I work, and have toured their facility. In addition to scanning and keying credit applications, they also do the speedpass violators and some of the Arizona red light cameras. The pictures are stellar. The data entry people key the license numbers.

Was an interesting, if not maddening tour.
