Today's topic is "AI Cameras Catch Drivers on Phones in Australia"
On December 1, the Australian state of New South Wales started using artificial intelligence (AI) cameras to catch people using mobile phones while driving.
For the first three months, drivers caught using their phones will only get a warning letter. After that time, they will get a fine of $235 – or $312 if they are near a school.
The cameras work day and night, and in any kind of weather. When a camera sees someone who is probably using a phone while driving, the photo is checked by a government worker. People will usually find out about their fine within a week, and they will be able to see their photo.
The cameras were tested from January to June, 2019. During that time, 8.5 million vehicles were checked, and more than 100,000 drivers were caught using their phones.
In New South Wales, it is illegal to hold and use a mobile phone while driving. Drivers can only make or receive voice calls if they don't need to use their hands or look at their phones.
Bernard Carlon of New South Wales’ Center for Road Safety said the cameras could prevent around 100 serious crashes over five years. He also said that a survey found 80% of people supported use of the cameras.
Transport for New South Wales said that since 2012, 13 people have been killed and 243 people have been injured in crashes because a driver was using a mobile phone. It also said the state is the first place in the world to use this kind of technology.
