nothing. And banning ALPR wont fix anything either. All cars have 4 unique serial numbers broadcast via radio at all times via the TPMS system. you don't even need a camera, just a radio receiver.

TPMS doesn't need to be unencrypted like that, although many car manufacturers do like to save a buck.

If you get a car old enough, you won't need to worry about TPMS (but that car will not have been tested against recent crash test scenarios).

TPMS is over the air, each sesnor has a 32 bit unique ID. you have 4 per car... its easy to identify

Ideally the implementation would be immaterial to a ban. The ban (or more likely first, warrant requirement similar to cell data) would be on the tracking database, not the details of how the tracking was accomplished.

Mine doesn't.

do you have some sort of indirect tire pressure checking like wheel speed?
