Do not go on private property, it's trespassing!!!!! Rear tags only -> back into a parking spot!! That's the best you can do.

03:30 "Only accessible by licensed professionals and does not give any personal information" Yeah right. That might be for now, but eventually people will learn how to hack this system just like every other internet related thing. Think about it, some creep who has access to one of those cameras mounted on his car sees a woman he is infatuated with and uses this system to gain info on her.

The tag belongs to the state. The repo companies were using them BEFORE anyone else. There is no private info added, just where the tag was scanned. You can't do anything about it it doesn't track you or your car. You won't ever rid of it, because the law uses it to find where they scanned a murderer's car, or something to that effect. Also, camera car drivers scan at least 30k plates...a week...Easily.

Everyone in this video is upset that the repo man will find them..

That guy was mad cuz the repo guy took a photo of his car and it probably got repo'ed...PAY YOUR BILLS

hide ur car.. in a barn tell your payments are up to date

This is invasion of privacy

No private citizen or entity should be allowed to have this type of equipment. Private entities never have a right to engage in government style surveillance of the general public. Actually, the US constitution does protect against unwarranted search and seizure. It is called the fourth amendment and it makes no distinction between government and private search and seizure. It is time our courts stop making excuses for private lowlifes and their abuses of our rights.

Illegal tag searching that isn't ordered by the courts to make this legal!! Unwarranted searches not by a judge to order this legal is a violation on private property!!! HUGE LAWSUITS can pend on the company and the drivers of the tow truck or unmarked car with cameras!!!!

I can’t believe as a nation that values our freedom above all else we have allowed law enforcement an repo company’s to use these the Supreme Court in my state has upheld them makes me sick

“CiViL liBeRty” pay your damn car notes !

Plate spray. Use it.

The lienholder should report the car stolen, and only law-enforcement, received those plates, and if the vehicle is recovered they will be paid, but their won’t have any information

Cover your plate with a dealership plastic lisence plate and cover your VIN number. Totally protect your privacy. None of their business where u at!

I was selling cars in 2010, this guy buying a brand new Camaro was showing me how his repo truck works. It scans everyone it sees and instantly notifies driver of a match.

Make the bank- lender prove they gave you lawful money!!!..

This story is incorrect. As an ex repo agent myself, I’ve used these cameras to spot vehicles that were up for repossession. We do not store that data on any computer system and we can scan thousands of cars a night. Or during the day sometimes. When we get a hit, we pull up the repo order. If we don’t have an order, we make a phone call to get one. Never the less, that information is not stored anywhere but on the truck or camera car.

Out of order repo ppl shouldn’t be able to!

Law-enforcement should have access to these license plates and possibly the federal trade commission Sentinel as available to all law-enforcement

No, the only way to stop this from happening is to put a polarizing filter on your license plate

What if you have paper plates

there is no expectation of privacy when you display the numbers on the front and rear of your car

Start taking off your rage if you get pulled over. Tell the cop. The f the cop still fines you tell the judge. You or I can’t go to the dmv to get info on a tag. Repo comp a s a private company and should not be able to do this.

I think they should be part of the Federal Trade Commission Repo Is classified as a stolen vehicle, and every car that is recovered the repo company receives money Repo companies if they want more money They talk to the Federal trade commission

Seems like this could fall under doxxing

I think it’s time to people start taking their license plates off their car is that they own and then if they get pulled over by the police and get fined for it you just go to court and tell the judge you don’t like your privacy to be on some repossessed companies database because you do have the right to privacy

I will sue the hell out of them,and repo trucks aren't marked ,so I will follow it all day to find out the company and address to sue them

People of America just start taking your license plates off your vehicle this is absurd complete violation of privacy

You sign that contract, read it, you have no rights

It is there business that's how they find out if you ain't paying your vehicle, stolen cars etc. Its private info and if you haven't done any you got none to worry

LPR has been on the streets for over 10 years. Lender's never really kept license plates on hand before that. Bet your ass they do now.

sounds like a police impersonater

Repo companies have your address they even have the keys to your car,why do they a license plate reader

I saw one on a Prius once and thought they were working for Google but now I know it wasn't.

(In his best Ed Rooney voice) *NINE* times.

Oh that's what those things are. I've seen many cars with these things on them. I had no idea. I've asked and no one ever gave me a straight answer.

I missed this reports on this and I've seen some of the cars around town. Can you imagine a nefarious candidate paying one of these companies intel on specific cars. Then paying criminals to sabotage peoples vehicles...slippery slope. Nothing like heading off rivalries as they say...

This is a violation of privacy and for those who can't understand that try removing you're head from youre ass !!!! Towing company's whom ever they are working for don't have the right to be taking photos of youre car period !!!! This is just another over reach of authority !!!! Only bad things can come out of something like this !!!

Omg, we gonna have to outlaw photographic memory too,, cause if they see your plate driving down the road it violates your privacy and all. (Sorry I don't have a sarcasm font)

these cars are all over killeen texas

Sometimes banks have cameras on their exterior. Is it a violation of your rights that the bank videos of people walking along a public sidewalk. Would it be a violation of the bank's rights for you to video the interior of the bank if possible from a public sidewalk? This is something that one of those Constitution testers have to try. Stand on the sidewalk be sure you're not on bank property and start videoing the interior of the bank through their window. If the police come or the bank people come out ask them if you're doing anything illegal if they say yes ask them to take the bank cameras down.

If your car is up for repo, then just hide the car in a barn somewhere, not that hard to figure out

What is a criminal? How far the charges what charges

I won’t be surprised if they start taking pictures of us when we’re in jail and post them online too let everyone know we’re in jail

That guy with the glasses be right

I've missed the point of this new story

If your not a criminal why does it matter

Hey let's start snapping pictures of these baguettes

That's why I keep on paper plates

Wow so Anyone can buy them👍 lets hear it for Tech. There's our Chip-just not shot into us!!

Yeah I'm a repo guy who works for myself a camera system cost you about 12 Grand little too pricey for me I just do subcontract work places like InstaCredit AutoMart TitleMax few crappy car dealerships down in the city of st.louis i get anywhere between 9 and 17 cars a week for 200-300 a piece sounds like a lot of money but then you start to realize half of it goes to insurance repairs fule licensing registration and just keeping your tow truck running and then another big chunk goes to taxes what you got to keep receipts for everything so you can write off as much as possible at the end of the year cuz you're going to get 1099 but after it's all said and done I can clear about $1,000 a week sometimes a little bit more sometimes a little bit less but I get to be my own boss I have nobody looking over my shoulder and I only work about 3 days a week if I work a full 5 days I work a little short half days...... Easiest fastest money I've ever made was a repossession of a pickup truck about three blocks away from the dealership The car lot owner was threatened with a baseball bat by the debtor for calling and harassing about his payment and he told me to go get it the guy wasn't even home but because it was a dangerous situation I charged six hundred bucks for that one and was done in about 30 minutes..... The camera plate readers work like this you buy the system you pay a monthly fee to access the website car dealerships that pay a monthly fee to that website can't put the plate number in of vehicle's they're wanting to repossess the tow truck driver just drives around and when you get a hit on a vehicle you stick a magnetic GPS on the vehicle then you contact the dealership or lienholder and tell them you've located that vehicle this works great for people who try to run out of state so now you found a car in Colorado that was purchased in Missouri somebody thought they could move to another state and never be found so as a tow truck driver you work up the cost for the repossession and the delivery fee to wherever they want the car dropped off and negotiate with the lien holder once that is all worked out you use your GPS to relocate that vehicle and go get it picking up a vehicle and having to move it and drive it across a couple of states can be like a $1,500 paydayor more depending on the make model and type of car if its was like a really nice new Mercedes or something I would charge a whole lot more then I would for say a Chrysler 300..... Also a lot of times the lienholder would like photographs of the car just to make sure they're not agreeing for you to deliver a wrecked piece of crap and it's worth the repossession...... Their carwas photographed and 9 separate times now how many times was it photographed by a police car with a plate scanner it's the same system..... And it's a news vehicle so that means it's going to be at accident scenes where police cars are present and reporting is going on..... Just something to think about

I’m not worried about this. I’m not a criminal, and I pay my car note. I like how Jason Demento is worried about privacy but he puts his REAL name out there and blasts himself on tv wearing a trump shirt...... that’s a lot more information about someone than a plate reader could ever get, durrr.

SOLUTION: PUT YOUR LICENSE PLATES ON THE FRONT WINDSHIELD OR SPRAY A REFLECTIVE PHOTOGRAPH SPRAY.

Regretfully there is no right to privacy in a public area.

nothing illegal here.

damn they must have me all over california, nevada, and even arizona Lol and i only have one plate on

Where can I buy that I’m starting a repo company

Pay your bills David

anyone can just walk up to your car and take a picture so what's the big deal

😂. Next for people ???? 😅.

Lol I just received an job offer to do this

Repo companies get a limited information I can look up your license plate online I can get your name your number your email address who live in the address online repo companies only get a limited information so what's the problem it's not the repo company it's the information you can get online

Lpr is the best repo tool ever !! Privacy don't count in public

Easy don't finance a car

Repo Agents..... lmao

Keep in mind that they only track the license plate not car or the owner.

we dont care about you only the vehicle, if your making your payment then you have nothing to worry about otherwise we are just mapping historical data

pay yo bill!

The irony of a trump supporter expressing concern over civil rights violations, lol.

As a LPR/ Spotter for a repossession company in Texas. If your car/truck/bus/motorcycle is up for repossession my company will get it. We only use it for that purpose only. It only shows Make/Model/Year/VIN number/ LAT# and LON# and the order number. When we get a hit.. we call the financial company that the vehicle was financed through and give them the lat# and lon#, and last 6 of the VIN. Then I aquire a repossession order from said financial company via email. The email is then forwarded to my company and the wrecker driver.. At that point I own the car. Sorry just doing my job. But heed this warning... YOU don't PAY, WE will TAKE.

Oh God you people really don't know how this works

If your are not a criminal or a debtor you have nothing to fear

I am a repo car scanner that's my job if I'm not doing someone else is taking my check its just tag pictures for repo some people not pay there car payments s for many months and yrs too 8 months they just dont give cars away.
