This is a front for privatization of government. The police and any other law enforcement agency as they currently exist don't need this. They already have all the information they need at their fingertips in their police cruisers. This is among the first steps to privatize government and take civil rights away from citizens.
Vigilant Solutions (click here) creates intelligence by merging previously disparate data sets such as fixed and mobile license plate recognition, public records, facial recognition, and more. Vigilant’s LEARN Intelligence Network provides an easy to use and intuitive interface to all of this information for unmatched investigative capability in a secure, hosted environment to reduce demands on agency IT resources and to facilitate nationwide interoperability and data sharing.
Currently, if private security officers run into suspicious circumstances they have to at the very least call the local police to officially apprehend criminals. This is among the first steps to remove the authority of government and place it in the hands of private agencies and private courts.

"If all government is inefficient then it might as well be abolished correct? However, if we have private courts, wont the courts be influenced by the one who pays the most money? I know that this is probably the same with state courts, but how would a private system of courts be better than a government system of courts?"
What makes anyone believe this is a foolproof method of finding a Vehicle Indentification Number (VIN). What will happen here is that the criminals are already ahead of the game and will find an identical vehicle and swap license plates. The game of chance will go on forever and the victims will be the innocent.
These systems are Sci-Fi, impractical, expensive and an ultimate burden to consumers. This is ridiculous.
Utah: Repo Men Sue To Overturn Private License Plate Reader Ban (click here)
Repossession industry claims free speech rights in bid to photograph and track license plates in Utah.
Private
companies that spy on motorists are suing the state of Utah over a law
that limits commercial use of automated license plate readers (ALPR,
also known as ANPR in Europe). The firms Digital Recognition Network Inc
and Vigilant Solutions told the US District Court for the District of
Utah that they have a First Amendment right to photograph motorists,
identify the vehicle and record the time and GPS coordinates in a
searchable database accessible to clients nationwide.
Digital Recognition Network (DRN) mounts license plate reader cameras on tow trucks so it can distribute the collected data to "clients and partners," usually repossession firms and collection agencies. In Utah, Swift Towing, American Automotive Recovery, Inner Global Recovery and Repros Recovery together spent $120,000 buying license plate reader cameras from the firm. Vigilant Solutions typically offers information from these cameras to law enforcement agencies....

The government and/or private industry has NO RIGHT and is operating unconstitutionally within the USA in regard to private citizens' rights to privacy. Such mass surveillance is AGAINST the law without proper authority through the courts.
Amendment XIV
Section 1.
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
So, therefore, private information companies operating today are doing so illegally through mass collection of information.
