What kind of camera captures seat belt violations?

Electronic surveillance cameras are usually installed at traffic lights, which can record vehicles passing through or waiting at intersections without seat belts fastened. Here is additional information: High-definition checkpoint: Currently, there are no cameras specifically designed to capture seat belt violations. The cameras capable of recording unfastened seat belts are called high-definition checkpoints. These cameras are typically installed on national highways, provincial roads, and expressways to capture speeding and other violations. They can take frontal shots, allowing for clear visibility of the driver's face and whether the seat belt is fastened. Penalties for not wearing a seat belt: When driving on roads other than expressways or urban express roads, if the driver fails to fasten the seat belt as required, a fine will be imposed without penalty points. When driving on expressways, if the driver fails to fasten the seat belt as required, a fine will be imposed along with a deduction of 2 points. When a vehicle is traveling on an expressway, if a passenger fails to fasten the seat belt as required, a fine will be imposed. When driving on urban roads with speed limits below 50 km/h, if a passenger fails to use the seat belt as required and corrects the behavior immediately after being pointed out, an oral warning will be issued.

Now when I drive long distances, I pay special attention to these monitoring devices. The cameras mounted on the gantries at highway entrances and exits are particularly keen on capturing seatbelt violations. These cameras are positioned high up, and they flash to take photos as soon as you pass by, not only measuring speed but also catching those not wearing seatbelts. Additionally, the electronic police at urban main road intersections are experts too—those square box-like devices with flashlights are the most common. They activate as soon as the light turns red, specifically targeting drivers not wearing seatbelts. In fact, many checkpoints on national and provincial highways also have this function—don’t assume rural areas are unmonitored. Once, I got caught near a highway service area. Now, I buckle up as soon as I get in the car—it’s the easiest habit to avoid unnecessary fines and points.

I've driven for ride-hailing services and pass through various monitoring points daily. There are mainly three types of seatbelt enforcement cameras: 1) Fixed checkpoints on highways, especially at the start/end points of interval speed detection zones – the system automatically detects seatbelt usage once you enter the shooting range; 2) Urban traffic cameras at key intersections like crossroads or school zones, where both dome and bullet cameras can capture HD footage; 3) Mobile enforcement devices on police patrol vehicles that conduct random checks. These cameras upgrade so fast nowadays that some can even monitor the front passenger seat. Don't gamble with safety – those cheap seatbelt buckles can't fool the cameras. Getting fined 200 RMB plus wasting time isn't worth it, just buckle up properly.

I live next to a major urban arterial road and have been observing for a long time. The rectangular electronic police cameras at intersections mainly capture seatbelt violations. During the day, you can see the flashing lights on top frequently activating—they can clearly photograph the shoulder strap area of drivers when vehicles are stopped at red lights. On highways, the gantry-mounted cameras spanning overhead are the most effective, especially around toll booths and tunnel exits. I've heard the new models incorporate AI analysis technology that automatically detects seatbelt status as long as the upper body is captured, with very high accuracy. It's advisable to properly adjust your shoulder strap before driving and avoid letting clothing obscure it.
