Is the Probability of Traffic Violations Going Unnoticed High?
2 Answers
Automobile traffic violations have a very low probability of going unnoticed. Here is detailed information about electronic monitoring: 1. Vehicle capture rate is 100% (excluding two-wheeled motorcycles, etc.). 2. Recognition time is approximately 1 second, much faster than human reaction. 3. License plate recognition rate is over 95% during the day and over 90% at night. 4. Applicable speed range is 5-180km/h. 5. When the traffic light is about to turn green, the electronic monitoring system will shut down 2 seconds in advance, mainly to prevent false captures. Therefore, drivers should not take chances with red-light running violations and must always prioritize safe driving.
Having driven for so many years, I often come across friends discussing whether traffic violations will be caught on camera. The probability is actually quite hard to say—it largely depends on where you're driving. In big cities, surveillance cameras are everywhere, and speeding or running red lights are almost always captured. The chances of getting away with it are really slim; I've seen countless examples myself. In suburban areas or at night, the odds might be slightly higher, but with advanced technology nowadays, the probability is still very low. Traffic violations are no small matter—aside from fines and points, causing an accident would be even worse. My advice is not to rely on luck; drive within the speed limit and develop good habits for safety and peace of mind. Nowadays, mobile maps can alert you to surveillance points, so using them in advance can be a big help. In short, drive steadily—don't treat probability as a gamble. Isn't it better to stay safe and worry-free?
