š° News we're reading
ā¢ Vermont traffic sensors mistaken for Flock cameras, officials say (wcax.com) ā Devices along Route 2 at Bear Trap and Cub roads in Milton were mistakenly reported online as police-operated Flock license plate readers, but officials say theyāre actually state traffic sensors that trigger warning signs. Milton police stress they donāt use those cameras, while state law tightly limits license plate readers and civil liberties advocates continue to watch surveillance technology closely.
