Imposes certain requirements on use of automated license plate readers by law enforcement agencies.
This New Jersey bill (S 3035) regulates how law enforcement agencies use automated license plate readers (ALPRs). It requires agencies to conduct annual audits of ALPR use, submit detailed annual reports to the Attorney General (including data on readings, storage, and data requests), and retain collected data for exactly two years before deleting it - unless they get special permission for cost reasons. The bill also penalizes unauthorized access to ALPR data with fines or jail time. These rules directly affect all New Jersey law enforcement agencies using ALPR technology.
