“NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) – It is technology billed as helping fight crime and locating missing people. But it is still not clear whether some License Plate Recognition (LPR) cameras used by law enforcement across the state can read Tennessee’s new license plates at night.
The Tennessee Department of Revenue confirmed it has issued 725,000 of the new Tennessee license tags, which have a dark blue background and white numbers and letters.
The issue with nighttime reads surfaced as far back as February 7, with agencies in West, Middle, and East Tennessee reporting problems. The Department of Revenue said it had been made aware of the situation and was working with law enforcement and camera providers on a fix.”
