Sheley says if current trends continue, most law enforcement agencies across the state will use automated license plate readers to keep track of people.

Sheley says they're still in the very early stages of the process but they hope to find out how people are being tracked.  They've filed Freedom of Information Act requests with 18 Illinois agencies, including the Illinois State Police, and the Springfield, Lemont, Bellwood, and Chicago Police Departments.  The agencies have five days to comply with the FOIA requests or request an extension.
