Dislikes
This appears to be nothing more than authorization for mass surveillance of Oklahoma citizens. This isn't protecting citizens--it is Big Brother monitoring them.
This is a slippery slope into a surveillance state. Also, there’s the potential to get false positives by misreading the plates. We do not want more cameras
No public reasoning provided.
Protecting road workers is important, but SB 1434 does so by sacrificing privacy and expanding surveillance. Safety can be addressed through other means, that are already available.
Think flock cameras here; this is the surveillance state in play - very bad bill!
In my opinion this is a bad bill. Law enforcement should monitor these sites and issue citations for violators.
