The following is a social media post from the Willits Police Department Facebook page:

LPRs are an enforcement tool not a prevention tool.
They might make it easier to id and find a perpetrator but is far from likely to prevent a crime.
The companies that peddle these will try to convince you otherwise, but every study to date soundly refutes their claims.
