Summary

The bill restricts when Michigan state and local agencies can use automatic license‑plate reader (ALPR) systems, allowing them only for specific law‑enforcement, parking, security, and toll purposes. It requires agencies to delete captured data after 14 days unless an exception applies, adopt public policies, and file detailed quarterly reports. The goal is to protect privacy while still permitting targeted public‑safety uses.
