Will One-Way Streets Always Be Monitored?

Yes. Below are some driving precautions: When encountering a right turn: When the vehicle is about 30 meters away from the curve, slow down (or control the speed) and steer slightly to the left. This ensures that when reaching the curve, there is sufficient width on the right side of the road to accommodate the inner wheel difference during the turn. By the time you reach the curve (before turning the steering wheel), aim for the most ideal turning speed. If the vehicle needs to make consecutive turns: Pay attention to whether there are oncoming vehicles from a small left turn or straight ahead. If there are, continue with the right turn and follow the left-turn technique for the small left curve. As the small left curve is about to complete, steer the wheel back in advance to align the vehicle along the right side of the straight road, and be prepared to slow down or stop based on road conditions ahead.
I've driven through many cities and noticed that one-way streets aren't necessarily monitored by cameras, as many places simply don't have these devices installed. In old town areas or small streets, there might just be a warning sign – camera coverage is actually quite limited, especially in budget-constrained regions where fewer devices are installed. Even if cameras are present, they might malfunction or struggle to capture license plates in low-light conditions. However, even without being caught on camera, the risks of wrong-way driving or reckless behavior remain high, potentially leading to accidents or being stopped by traffic police. My advice is not to gamble on this – following one-way street rules saves hassle. If you do get caught, the fine could easily cover half a year's car maintenance costs.
