In 2023, The City of Norfolk installed 172 Flock Safety automatic license plate reading cameras (ALPRs.) While ALPRs have been around for a while, the cameras by Flock Safety are able to record more information than just the license plate, including: make, model, color, timestamp, type of plate, damage or alterations and whether the vehicle is registered to a resident or non-resident. Seven out of 10 crimes are committed with a vehicle. With ALPRs, law enforcement can pinpoint the location of a suspect, shrinking the search radius.
School Zone Safety Cameras
The school zone speed photo enforcement program goal is to increase driver compliance in the reduced speed zones while improving the safety of students in nearby schools.
A total of 19 cameras have been installed around 10 Norfolk Public School locations.
