Why the police use ALPR
Automatic Number Plate Recognition technology is used to help detect, deter and disrupt criminality at a local, force, state and national level, including tackling traveling criminals, organised crime groups and terrorists. ALPR provides lines of enquiry and evidence in the investigation of crime and is used by law enforcement agencies throughout the world.
How it works
As a vehicle passes an ALPR camera, its registration number is read and instantly checked against database records of vehicles of interest. Law enforcement officers can intercept and stop a vehicle, check it for evidence and, where necessary, make arrests. A record for all vehicles passing by a camera is stored, including those for vehicles that are not known to be of interest at the time of the read that may in appropriate circumstances be accessed for investigative purposes. The use of ALPR in this way has proved to be important in the detection of many offences, including locating stolen vehicles, tackling uninsured vehicle use and solving cases of terrorism, major and organised crime. It also allows officers’ attention to be drawn to offending vehicles whilst allowing law abiding drivers to go about their business unhindered.

Learn moreGovernment authorities have the responsibility to enforce measures that protect drivers, pedestrians and support efficient transport networks. As part of these responsibilities they require ALPR technological support in identifying drivers that jeopardise safety and cause obstructions to transport pathways. These enforcement measures have been specifically identified for Bus Lane infringements, Red Light violations and Box Junction infringements.
