MapQuest App Shows You Where License Plate Readers Are in Your Area
Turn on the Surveillance option and you'll see tiny eyeballs on the map marking the cameras' locations. The roads have eyes, and MapQuest can now show you where they are.
AI Summary
MapQuest’s navigation app now includes a “Surveillance” option that overlays tiny eyeball icons on its map to indicate the locations of automatic license‑plate readers. Activating the feature reveals where Flock cameras and similar readers are installed in a user’s neighborhood and beyond. The addition lets drivers see the positions of these monitoring devices directly within the app’s interface.
