With electronic license plate readers everywhere, you already lack privacy in a private vehicle. I wish there were a way one could drive anonymously yet still be held responsible for hit and runs, etc, but that doesn't exist.

Somewhat true, but is that data for sale on the open market? I mean, I wouldn't really be surprised if it was, but I'm hoping it isn't, at least in most places. I'm OK with government officials having access to data via a system of checks and balances, not so much with just anyone that happens to have a few bucks. Just because we've lost some privacy in one place, doesn't mean we should just stop caring, that's how things have gotten as bad as they are.
