Learn More About Vehicle Registration
Q. What are Virtual Permits?
A.Virtual Permits use your license plate information and a connected database to identify your vehicle rather than a traditional affixed decal or hang tag permit. Similar to the traditional parking permit registration: Students, Faculty, and Staff must enter information such as vehicle details (license plate number, make/model, color, etc.), home addresses, e-mails, and phone numbers online.
Q. How will my license plate information be used?
A. The license plate information collected in this process will only be referenced against the campus database for the strict purposes of verifying 91暗网 parking permits on campus.
Q. How long is my information kept?
A. License plate information entered in our system during the registration process will be kept permanently, as it is today.
Q. What is LPR?
A. License Plate Recognition (LPR) is the most current parking technology available that provides virtual permits through a vehicle鈥檚 license plate number in place of a paper permit.
Q. How does LPR work?
A. Individuals will register their vehicle license plate number into the parking software when purchasing a permit. The software generates a virtual permit assigned to that vehicle's license plate.
A. The rear license plate is captured by cameras mounted on enforcement vehicles during patrol. LPR works like a supermarket scanner by using your license plate in place of a barcode. When read, your license plate is automatically referenced against our database to verify the vehicle has purchased a virtual permit for this location. If the license plate and vehicle information are not associated with a valid virtual permit, or if the vehicle is linked to a virtual permit for a different location than the vehicle is currently parked (employee, student/general, etc.), then the vehicle will be subject to citation.
Q. How does LPR benefit me?
A.Elimination of physical permits to display, and the need to move permits from vehicle to vehicle. Lost or stolen permits and the associated replacement fees, police reports, and processing will be eliminated. You will not have to worry about remembering your permit, a permit falling off your rear-view mirror, or permits being displayed improperly. Reduced paper, plastic, envelopes, and ink used in permit production and distribution.
