Georgia ALPR law

§ 35-1-22

License plate data may be collected and accessed only for law enforcement purposes, which is defined as the investigation of an offense or activity initiated by law enforcement. The data must be destroyed no later than 30 months after it was originally collected unless the data are the subject matter of a toll violation or for a law enforcement purpose. Allows sharing of captured license plate data among law enforcement agencies. Any person who knowingly requests, uses, obtains, or attempts to obtain license plate data under false pretenses or for any purpose other than law enforcement purposes shall be convicted of a misdemeanor of a high and aggravated nature. Law enforcement agencies may contract with a person to hold and maintain captured license plate data, subject to the same policies as law enforcement agencies. Law enforcement agencies deploying an ALPR system must maintain policies for the use and operation of the system, including but not limited to policies for the training of law enforcement officers in the use of captured license plate data. License plate data collected by a law enforcement agency is not subject to public disclosure.
