Parking Permit Instructions

On the 黑料老司机campus, License Plate Recognition technology (LPR) and Virtual Permits have replaced all paper permits. LPR technology uses optical character recognition to automatically read license plate characters. 黑料老司机operates mobile LPR, which uses vehicle-mounted cameras to verify plates in all campus lots. Virtual permits are free of charge for CAPE instructors and students. This permit will allow you to park in any lot or garage listed on the  as parking for Student Commuters Permits.
