Automated License Plate Reader

"The system incorporates Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags in stickers that would go on a vehicle’s windshield as well as in reflective sheeting placed over the license plate.
As vehicles drive past sensors, the 3M tags would send vehicle registration and insurance information as well as data about inspection compliance, such as overdue smog checks, to a database. Automatic notices could be sent to the vehicle owners."


Government finding more ways to track people and their moving taxable machines.


Most people don't share more than one or two cars (and then only within their family), so when RFID readers are placed on most roads, government will track even those people who turn off their cell phones.
