To be fair, this area of Philadelphia has a number of pretty sensitive government buildings located nearby. City hall, Independence Hall, the US Mint and the Federal Reserve are all within a few blocks of where this car was found.<p>That said, Philadelphia&#x27;s parking ticket authority uses these license plate readers to identify vehicles that have been parked in a spot for longer than the allowed time. I&#x27;m sure that data gets fed into other databases as well, however.
