Are automated license plate readers a useful public safety tool — or a step too far?

On this edition of Mid-Maryland Live on 930 WFMD, Tim May and Frank May open the phone lines to local callers for a spirited conversation about the growing use of Automated License Plate Readers (ALPRs) and the concerns surrounding privacy, surveillance and government overreach.

In the middle of the discussion, Frederick County Sheriff Chuck Jenkins calls into the show to make his position clear: he's completely against the technology, describing it as an overreach.

Hear what Sheriff Jenkins has to say, how local callers feel about license plate readers, and the debate over where to draw the line between public safety and personal privacy.
