License Plate Readers Help Law Enforcement Save Lives

In 2025, 28,229 Texas children were reported missing. Among them, 62 were confirmed serious abductions that required AMBER alerts. For law enforcement, these cases turn a routine day into a race against time.

When a child is missing, a human trafficking victim is moved across county lines, or a suspect flees the scene of a deadly hit and run, every minute matters.

That’s why Texas law enforcement must have access to every responsible, effective tool available to protect our communities, including one of the most valuable resources in recent years - License Plate Reader (LPR) technology.
