Missouri is spending $243,750 to add 21 license plate readers for the Missouri State Highway Patrol under a Flock Safety contract that took effect on August 1, 2024, according to state bidding documents cited by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch in a story Government Technology republished on August 12, 2024. The purchase builds on a 2023 program that put 43 readers in 11 mostly rural mid-Missouri counties, and Gov. Mike Parson's administration tied it to the patrol's trouble hiring troopers. KCUR reported on June 29, 2026 on residents in Missouri and Kansas resisting the cameras. The sources give no approving body or end date.
