Cash grab for State Police
I wonder what sticker company donated to the Landry campaign.
We already have license plates to ID a vehicle. A QR code will do nothing except be a treasure trove of private information for hackers and scammers to start scanning QR codes for someone’s name and address.
What data will be stored in there in plain text?
A standard QR code can store 4,296 alphanumeric characters (letters and numbers).
If it is a link to a online database, who will have the authority to access this database.

At the end of video, politician says QRC is for officer to gather information on vehicle, insurance, stolen or not, and safety of officer to not approach driver without knowing about the vehicle. Isn't all this information available from the license plate? What's the change?
In addition, why have that sticker right next to the driver on the front driver side windshield? If it's truly for officer safety the officer could stay in their patrol car and call in the plate, just like on Adam12 and Dragnet. If they insist on having the QRC, then put it on the rear plate or passenger side rear window so that officer doesn't have to approach driver and get blasted with a 12 gage right through the windshield.
Thinking about it some more...This is just asking for more screw ups of information by having two sources of information on the vehicle, the QRC code and the License Plate. Do one or the other, not both. Maybe have the QRC code embedded in the plate if absolutely necessary. Change to vehicle ownership requires a plate change anyway.

The whole "inspection" thing was a scam from the start. It was just an exercise to make you think there was a legitimate purpose for them to charge you a fee. If they issue QR codes, who does the inspection now?
