I dislike loud cars and motorcycles, but ALPR should be limited severely. Driving a car shouldn't automatically subject you to dragnet surveillance.

Meanwhile emergency vehicle sirens are loud, obnoxious, and (in many cities) constant, with minimal benefit:

> The use of emergency vehicles’ lights and siren does not save clinically significant amounts of time, and it is associated with an increase in ambulance crashes.
