TRAFFIC VIOLATION DETECTION AND DETERRENCE : IMPLICATIONS FOR AUTOMATIC POLICING

This paper examines attitudes towards automated traffic law enforcement. It describes a project in which intelligence is built into the deterrence strategy. The author discusses the benefits of implementing automatic policing systems, but also points out two issues that must be addressed: 1) violation of drivers' privacy; and 2) over-reliance on surveillance systems for establishing safety margins.
