The department has over 80 new license plate readers around the city with more on the way.
CHULA VISTA, Calif. — You may not see Chula Vista’s new automaticas you’re driving down some of the city’s most popular streets, but they see your car and your license plate.
So far, the city has installed 81 of the 150 automatic license plate readers that were unanimously approved by the city council last October. Police said the readers do not track people, but instead, capture license plates and enough of the car to identify the make and model. That information can then be used to help detectives solve crimes.
Including missing person cases, which brought Maya Millete's sister to that city council meeting to support the readers. Maya vanished without a trace in 2021.
