AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)09/26 Report--

Nowadays, road safety monitoring equipment is smarter and more widely used. once the front driver is not wearing a seat belt, the surveillance camera can automatically identify it. With the introduction of artificial intelligence technology, the face recognition function is also embedded in the monitoring equipment to automatically obtain or track the information of violators.

In other words, technological breakthroughs can better regulate road safety issues. A few days ago, a new law has been introduced in Australia, which will be severely punished once a driver is identified by camera while driving with a mobile phone.

In order to persuade people not to use mobile phones while driving, the Australian state of New South Wales will install more surveillance cameras to report drivers who are distracted by playing with their phones while driving, according to media reports.

New South Wales, Australia's most populous state, is currently the first in the world to gain jurisdiction to use camera technology to punish drivers who are distracted by checking social media, texting or answering the phone while driving, according to Andrew Constance, the transport minister. By December, the state government plans to deploy 45 mobile detection cameras in South Wales.

It also said that the camera is a high-definition camera that can see the driver's behavior in the car and the objects in his hands through the windshield. At the same time, the device uses artificial intelligence technology to exclude drivers who do not touch the phone.

If the equipment detects and takes photos, the driver's behavior suspected of violating the law (using a mobile phone) will be reviewed and judged by the auditor. If the situation is true and the driver commits an illegal act, the Ministry of Communications will send a penalty notice to the car owner, requiring him to pay a fine of A $344 (1657 yuan).

In order to maximize promotion, some cameras in the state will be installed on patrol cars to patrol roads in New South Wales.

However, the rule further states that drivers can use other things such as mobile phone brackets to secure the phone, but it is illegal for the driver to touch the phone while driving.

Police say more than 16500 drivers have paid fines for illegal use of mobile phones this year.

Standardizing driver behavior and eliminating road safety risks may be further improved in the application of new technology.
