Florida license plate reader law

Florida — D

All states

Florida sets no limit on how long a record of where your car was can be kept. Each agency decides for itself, and some decide years. A private company logging your trips here has to delete them if you ask.

Limit on how long data is kept: None
Fla. Stat. § 316.0777. No period is set in the statute itself; it defers to a retention schedule established under § 316.0778. Source
Private cameras regulated: Yes
Florida has a comprehensive consumer privacy law in effect carrying a right to delete, which reaches a private operator. Source
You can see your own record: Yes
Fla. Stat. § 316.0777. Information relating to a plate registered to an individual may be disclosed to that individual. Florida is one of two states that says so. Source
Sharing restricted: Partial
Fla. Stat. § 316.0777. Images and data are confidential and exempt from public records, disclosable to criminal justice agencies for their official duties. Source
Audits required: No
Fla. Stat. § 316.0777. No audit or report is required. Source

Graded on all five criteria. Read against the statute itself.

Vote for Florida

Reading a state properly is a day of work against its statutes, and the money pays for the tooling and some of the time. $1.00 of USDC is one vote for doing Florida next. It buys no promise about when.

Send that figure exactly. The last few millionths are how the chain records that the vote was for Florida, and they are worth a twentieth of a cent.

Send it on any of these, and it is the same address on all of them: Base, Arbitrum, OP Mainnet, Polygon PoS, Unichain, Linea, Avalanche, Celo, Ethereum.

It has to be real USDC, the one Circle issues. A bridged version — USDbC, USDC.e — is a different contract with the same ticker, and the count will not see it.

Every contract above was checked on its own chain on 2026-08-29: it reports the symbol USDC and six decimals, or it is not counted.

Molt sees none of this. The payment happens in your wallet and the record is public on the chain, which is also how the count is kept. Nothing stops the same person paying twice.
