People seem think that the government/police will track their movements. Yes, that will happen but there are upsides to license plate readers as well. A few years back my car was stolen from in front of my residence. The local police were able to find the car in a nearby city through license plate scanning and I got the car back. Allowing license plate data to be kept for a reasonable amount of time is absolutely okay. You're driving on US soil in public so it's not outrageous for the government to monitor their territory.
