Privacy. License Plate Reader Legislation

What is happening? Tennessee is considering legislation, SB 1999 (2022 | TN) to extend the data retention requirement for license plate readers. Extending the length of time a law enforcement entity can hold license plate data from 90 days to 100 days.

Why is this important? A proposed amendment would preempt local regulation of license plate readers.

How will this be important? Bye bye local control
