Anyone know how the ANPR cameras work in supermarket carparks?
Parked in a deserted snow bound one today whilst visiting one of my shops. Was subsequently delayed and realised I had overstayed my welcome. Carpark had cameras on the entrance /exit reading front number plates coming in and reading back on way out.
If, just for an example, I had covered my rear number plate whilst I drove out the car park and then took cover off once out in the street away from the camera,
1. I assume the cameras take stills based on photographing every number plate it "sees" - so will it have taken a still of my car?
2. If not my car will have been registered going in but not out - assume they need a second photo to prove you have overstayed your welcome?
(and i know this is Scotland where the rules are still different and you don't need to say who was driving )
