The Washington Post reports that the agency recently issued a solicitation notice seeking bids for the database project, which would collect data from license-plate readers that rapidly scan the tags of passing vehicles, to help track down and arrest fugitive illegal immigrants.
A spokeswoman for the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency told the newspaper that the database “could only be accessed in conjunction with ongoing criminal investigations or to locate wanted individuals.”

I remember when George Orwell wrote "1984" and everybody said, "Cameras spying on citizens? Come on, it will never happen. George Orwell is a looney tune."
It's very obvious where all this is heading: The next generation will no nothing of privacy. Sad.
Comment on Salisbury News and the Cops pull you over on the way back from Giant... so your Ice Cream melts for griping about the limp wrist Mayor..
Why on earth would a license plate reader be needed to track down illegal immigrants? We welcome them every day at the borders and the Prez wants them to stay forever. No immigration laws are being enforced at all.
No, folks, there's a different reason to have these...
Yes 6:22 its called unconstitutional...since 99.9999% of those observed did nothing
I liked it when you could tell which state a vehicle was from just by looking at the plates. I miss it.
The building of the "prison planet" continues. It all leading to suppression of dissenting thought. The ultimate liberal/Marxist wet dream.
Wow, 8:24 and I thought I was the only one. Just hate all these new designer plates.
You used to know in a blink what state a car was from.
