Oklahoma is going to increase the state’s electronic insurance verification system by making the cameras record vehicle tags from time to time. While some lawmakers are absolutely confident about the plan, the others think it is not right.

Mainly they say that it violates people’s privacy because nobody would want to be shot by cameras all the time. No matter how, where, when, and what autos drivers operate, it is their business and politicians as well as insurance agents should stay away from this.

The statistics drawn by the Public Safety Department says that every fourth vehicle in Oklahoma is not insured which is against the law. In order to catch the scofflaws the lawmakers have made a decision to set 200 cameras in different locations on certain highways to record the bar codes at the bottom of each vehicle’s tag.

Later the scanned images would be matched with a national database which holds information about real-time vehicle insurance policies. If the scanner determines that the vehicle is uninsured, the owner will receive a ticket by mail.
