Traffic police cars could get smarter – resulting in more prosecutions – thanks to a product being exhibited at Intertraffic for the first time.

Israel’s 8325 RoadMetric is showing off Enforcement Deputy at Intertraffic 2016, a product it claims can change the “entire economics” of traffic enforcement.

Enforcement Deputy is an in-car video system for police patrols, combining continuous HD recording in four directions, automated licence plate reading ALPR capability and streaming video.

Claiming the system as a “game-changer”, RoadMetric says that Enforcement Deputy allows one police patrol to catch as many as ten violations per hour rather than the average 1.2 violations using current methods.

RoadMetric is also showing off its fully-automated bus-lane enforcement system. The system is based on cameras installed on buses that automatically detect vehicles interfering with the free-flow of bus traffic. The system automatically identifies licence plates and ignores vehicles allowed in the bus lane. It enables comprehensive policing of the entire bus lane with no need for investment in new infrastructure and it requires no involvement from the bus driver.

At least not according to the OECD 2013 report Cycling, Health and Safety which contains the statement: ‘Cyclists are often forgotten in the design of the road traffic system’. Looking through the statistics that exist (each country appears to compile them differently) it is not difficult to see how such a conclusion cou

Just a short time ago, that could have been a quote from a high-level policy document but with the first arrivals of vehicles with 802.11p connectivity – the door-opener to Vehicle-to-X (V2X) applications – it’s a statement which has increasing validity. The technology which uses our roads will also provide information on road conditions but V2X isn’t the only

Following a series of hands-free driving tests in tunnels, an Australian road authority believes that car manufacturers have to up their game before vehicles have the required levels of competence to consistently perform ‘assisted driving’ tasks. The trials, in the state of Victoria late last year, tested the ability of several vehicles to stay
