ALPR law in Georgia

Georgia regulates automated license plate readers under O.C.G.A. § 35-1-22. The statute caps retention at 30 months. Georgia permits access to captured plate data only for a law enforcement purpose and requires destruction no later than 30 months after collection, unless the data concerns a toll violation or an active law enforcement purpose. The data is exempt from the Georgia Open Records Act, and unauthorized access is a misdemeanor of a high and aggravated nature.
