North Carolina just budgeted for automatic license plate readers on public roads statewide, using systems from a private vendor called Flock Safety. The cameras will log and track vehicles as they move through the state. This is a permanent fixture now, not a pilot program or a one-off appropriation. The expansion happened quietly enough that most people in these mountains probably do not know it passed. Worth knowing what cameras are watching the highway between here and everywhere else.
