Bill H.500, introduced by Representative Rachelson of Burlington, seeks to amend existing legislation regarding the regulation of automated license plate recognition systems in Vermont. Specifically, it aims to prevent the repeal of certain provisions in 23 V.S.A. chapter 15, subchapter 2, which govern the use of these systems and the retention and utilization of the data they collect.

The proposed amendments are intended to ensure that the regulations surrounding automated license plate recognition systems remain in effect, thereby safeguarding the management and privacy of the data obtained through these technologies. The bill reflects a commitment to maintaining oversight and accountability in the use of automated law enforcement tools.
