I think some US states haven't yet deteriorated into the Orwellian surveillance grid nightmare that is most of England and Europe today. But, the US will follow suit eventually. NWO.
 
I find it amusing that where I live, dual plates are required unless you have the old fashioned plates. The guy who parks by my fintail has a 1967 Lincoln with 1967 plates, and he only has the rear plate - perfectly legal. Yet if I did this on my modern car, some revenue enforcer would eventually read me the riot act.

I like how the Caddys in the background are in direct opposition to the sports cars. I think I see a 61 back there, along with a couple of 58s, and an Eldorado Brougham.

All violations must be witnessed by a police officer to be cited.. So, unless or until they change the law.. no red-light cameras, here.

Here in NJ, where they've had front plates required pretty much forever the governor tried to eliminate that requirement and got shouted down by all the cops.
 
We seem to be getting the red light cameras on a county by county basis. Morris County, where I grew up, doesn't have any. Ocean County, where I am now, has them all over. Guess it's time to move back.

"Americans would never tolerate that level of surveillance Magnette, at least I hope so."
 
Actually, I think it is already established American legal practice that there is no expectation of privacy in a public location. So it would not be illegal to use license-plate recognition here in the USA (unless there was state or local ordnances).

#1 - something JDM maybe? Looks like a Nissan badge.
 
#2 - Reliant Kitten
 
#3 - Ford Zodiac IV (Farnham? The only aftermarket "estate" builder that I can name off the top of my head)
 
#4 - Ford Corsair

Well done Fintail -
 
Reliant Kitten
Ford Zodiac IV - but the coachwork was by Abbot
Ford Corsair - again estate by Abbot - and this one is a GT
 
The odd one out is a JDM Nissan, one I hadn't seen here before as a grey import, called a Wingroad - I think it is a sort of fleet model, rather than one aimed at family drivers.

Corsair looks like a fairly handsome machine...the Zodiac on the other hand looks kind of odd.
