🚗 **CAN YOUR CCTV REALLY READ NUMBER PLATES AT NIGHT?** 🌙📹

Many people are surprised to learn that a standard CCTV camera can often **see a vehicle** at night but **can't clearly read its number plate**.

Why? 🤔

Vehicle number plates are made from highly reflective material. At night, headlights and infrared light can cause the plate to become overexposed, leaving you with nothing more than a bright white rectangle.

In our latest video, we explain:
✅ Why standard CCTV cameras struggle with number plates at night
✅ How dedicated Number Plate (ANPR/LPR) cameras work
✅ Why correct installation is just as important as the camera itself
✅ Which properties benefit most from number plate recognition

Whether you own a home, farm, business, warehouse, school or estate, understanding the right camera for the right job can make all the difference when you need reliable evidence.

✅ Which resolution offers the best value?
