Flock & ALPR Cameras in Utica, South Carolina

Volunteers have reported 2 automated license plate readers in and around Utica — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 2 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Utica, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 0 of them sit inside Utica itself.

The rest sit in Seneca (2).

2 of them name an operator in the record: Seneca Police Department (2). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.

What’s watching Utica

These aren’t red-light cameras.
