Flock Cameras Wrongly Track Driver Over Plate Error
9 min read

The alert stemmed from a data entry error: a New Jersey manufacturer plate was reported as "34 DTM" instead of "34 03 DTM." Flock's AI failed to distinguish the non-standard small characters, triggering a multi-day police tracking operation.
