德州共和党州长格雷格·阿博特下令暂停在州道路上安装自动车牌识别摄像头,德州运输部从9月8日起停止向Flock摄像头系统颁发新的安装许可证1。这一决定源于阿博特8月下旬冻结了针对该技术的州资金支持1。
该禁令仅适用于新增许可,不影响已安装的900多台摄像头继续正常运作1。截至8月,德州共有约13000台Flock摄像头在运行1,其中德州政府已拨款至少3000万美元用于资助超过3200台摄像头的安装1。阿博特冻结州资金后,全州多个城市和县政府随之拆除了所属的摄像头1。
此举反映了对自动车牌识别技术监管的关注。多个执法人员因滥用Flock摄像头进行跟踪而被逮捕或调查1。与此同时,佛罗里达州长罗恩·德桑蒂斯也于8月31日下令移除州道路上的摄像头1。
Texas has stopped issuing permits for Flock automatic license plate recognition cameras on state highways, following an order by Republican Governor Greg Abbott.1 The Texas Department of Transportation suspended approvals for new installations beginning September 8.1
The freeze applies only to new permits and does not affect the more than 900 cameras already operated by Texas public safety agencies, which will continue functioning.1 However, the decision has triggered broader consequences across the state, as Abbott had previously frozen state funding for Flock cameras in late August, prompting cities and counties to remove their systems.1 Texas had deployed approximately 13,000 Flock cameras statewide as of August and had allocated at least $30 million to fund more than 3,200 of them.1
The action mirrors a similar move in Florida, where Governor Ron DeSantis ordered the removal of cameras from state roads on August 31.1 These decisions come amid concerns about law enforcement misuse, with multiple officers arrested or investigated for using the surveillance technology for unauthorized tracking.1
