What the plate readers in San Fernando keep
- Records
- The plate of each car that passes, with the time and place. Often a photo of the car.
- Run by
- Most don't say. Tagged ones include private operators (5).
- Kept for
- Not published on the map. Each operator sets its own. Flock Safety’s FAQ: “Flock recommends a 7-day default.”
- Who sees it
- Whoever runs it, and those it shares with. In California, a public agency may share only with other public agencies in the state.
- How to ask
- Read the operator's policy. California requires one. Or ask the city for its records.
