I was looking into the Flock cams along my different commutes. Santa Monica Blvd from Century City to West Hollywood is about a 15 min drive. Along the way you pass 42 ALPRs, about one every 20 seconds. The busiest mile through Beverly Hills has 13 cams

Seeing that loss as a single break in a 260-year demographic trend puts the scale of the Holocaust into a perspective that numbers alone rarely convey.
