License Plate Readers on non law enforcement vehicles?

3 posts in this topic

Saw how common is it for license plate readers to be used by non law enforcemnt personnel???

Asking after seeing a Yonkers Parking Violations Bureau SUV with license plate reader installed on the roof yesterday

and I think this is absolutely brilliant given their interactions with numerous vehicles daily.

Anybody else seen the readers installed on non law enforcement vehicles anywhere else???

Philadelphia parking enforcement has them, but they do not scan the LE databases, only the parking scofflaw ones. Toronto parking enforcement ( part of the PD) has them as well, and they do scan the stolen vehicle listings as well.

I imagine there are others, but those are the two I know of.

The plate readers can also be programmed with things like scofflaws so it may be possible for non-law enforcement like Parking Enforcement, etc. to use them.

As v85 said, they won't have access to the full database from DMV.
