Which way Rhode Island cameras face
An ALPR reads plates only in the direction it points, so a camera facing away from your lane doesn't photograph your plate. 3 of the 319 documented cameras in Rhode Island have a recorded bearing.
- NE — 1
- SE — 1
- NW — 1
Bearings are rounded to the nearest of eight compass points. The 316 cameras without a recorded direction aren't counted here — that detail simply hasn't been tagged yet.
Camera vendors in Rhode Island
- Flock Safety — 292 cameras
- Unknown vendor — 21 cameras
- Motorola/Vigilant — 6 cameras
Vendor comes from OpenStreetMap's optional manufacturer tag. Most cameras read as unknown vendor because nobody has recorded that detail, not because the hardware is unidentifiable.
Planning a route around Rhode Island cameras
The interactive map includes a route planner: set a start and an end point and it returns both a direct route and one routed around documented cameras, so you can weigh the extra distance against the cameras avoided. It can only route around cameras that have been mapped, which in Rhode Island means these 319.

The data comes from OpenStreetMap volunteers and refreshes nightly.
How many Flock cameras are on the map in Rhode Island?
319 as of September 4, 2026, spread across 6 cities with their own map page. This counts cameras volunteers have mapped, not every camera installed in Rhode Island, so treat it as a floor rather than a total.

Which way do Flock cameras in Rhode Island face?
3 of the 319 documented cameras in Rhode Island have a recorded compass bearing. 1 face NE, 1 face SE, 1 face NW. Direction matters because an ALPR reads plates only in the direction it points, so a camera facing away from your lane does not photograph your plate.
