Indiana ALPR law

NCSL's state survey identified no ALPR-specific statute for Indiana (related to government use—See HB 1150 (2026) for homeowners’ association regulation.). Public-records law still applies: see the Reporters Committee Open Government Guide.

NCSL, Automated License Plate Readers: State Statutes, updated September 28, 2026. Not legal advice; read the statute.

  2. Check upcoming council or commission agendas for ALPR or Flock items, then prepare a public comment (prefilled for Fort Wayne).
  3. Track a drive from Fort Wayne to see how many reported cameras your commute passes.
  4. Fix the map: report missing cameras, or use "Report a fix" on a wrong pin.
