Lawmakers target Flock cameras with a threat to highway funding

Wednesday, September 16, 2026


A bipartisan bill introduced in Congress would restrict Flock Safety cameras—which read vehicle license plates on roadways—to a limited set of public safety uses. The bill would tie restrictions to federal highway funding, making compliance a condition for states to receive transportation dollars. Flock Safety operates thousands of cameras across U.S. roadways that capture and store license plate images. The bill does not name specific lawmakers or provide a vote count or introduction date.
