Versatile WIM and speed enforcement

Camea, headquartered in the Czech Republic, will use the 2015 ITS World Congress to highlight its weigh-in-motion (WIM) system that can be expanded with a certified speed measurement function, which many municipalities welcome. The company says the system can address two road safety issues – weight and speed enforcement. The bi-directional traffic mode of the system prevents vehicles from avoiding the weigh station also works well in a situation where the road is closed or vehicles are queueing in one lane

6761 Camea, headquartered in the Czech Republic, will use the 2015 ITS World Congress to highlight its weigh-in-motion (WIM) system that can be expanded with a certified speed measurement function, which many municipalities welcome. The company says the system can address two road safety issues – weight and speed enforcement.

The bi-directional traffic mode of the system prevents vehicles from avoiding the weigh station also works well in a situation where the road is closed or vehicles are queueing in one lane.

An advanced traffic classifier, also developed by Camea, with wide-ranging traffic monitoring applications, such as vehicle counting, precise classification, gap and headway measurement, and axle counting can also be optionally added to WIM system.

Although policy documents often imply close correlation between enforcement, compliance and safety – in part, as a counter to accusations that enforcement is rather more concerned with revenue generation – there is a noticeable reluctance among policy makers and auto manufacturers to exploit in-vehicle safety systems for enforcement applications.

    The US automated enforcement market is in rude health as the number of systems and applications continues to grow and broaden. Jason Barnes reports. Blessed and cursed – arguably, in equal measure – with a constitution which stresses the right to self-expression and determination, the US has had a harder journey than most to the more widespread use of automated traffic enforcement systems. In some cases, opposition to the concept has been extreme – including the murder of a roadside civil enforcement offici
