What is your opinion on cameras mounted on police cars that read plates and automatically do a search?
Is it a warrantless search?

Yes it is, but so is a person walking down the street. Should law enforcement be able to use facial recognition and searches based on that?No. It is a publicly displayed item.

Consider two possible scenarios;What is your opinion on cameras mounted on police cars that read plates and automatically do a search?

Tell me the difference between a police officer eyeing a license plate and remembering an APB and recognition software spotting and doing the same.
I would argue that the recognition software would be less likely to make a mistake resulting in an improper stop.

But isnt the APB similar to probable cause?

Yes, its just I do not recall a discussion on it and it came up when talking with some friends and I thought I will bring it up here too.Those have been around for at least a decade. You know that, right?
Brilliant reasoning.No.
And no competent US court of law would entertain such a claim.

Have you by any chance seen some flying pigs out there? Anywhere? Because I actually agree with you. I think ANPR devices (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) devices are awesome bit of technology to find disqualified drivers, find uninsured drivers, find stolen cars, find stolen plates and catch come criminals too.
I didn't argue they were good or should be implemented.
I only pointed out that it is not "a warrantless[SUP][sp][/SUP] search" as the OP queried.
My mistake then but I think the police needs technical advances like that. If you have to worry about a potential threat coming from every car and every door, you need every technical tool you can have at your disposal.
