HaveIBeenFlocked.com compiles Flock audit logs, allowing users to type in their license plate number, and the website returns information on search results, including whether or not a Flock system operator has searched the database for their license plate.

The audit log includes the stated reason that someone in law enforcement gave in order to look up the license plate, but doesn’t include if or when your vehicle passed one of the Flock cameras.

Something I find interesting about this is, there's no verification that you do indeed own the plate you're searching. I'm not sure what mischief you could get up to knowing that the police searched for information on someone else, but it's something to think about.
