Will Traffic Violations Definitely Be Captured Where There Are Cameras?
1 Answers
Traffic violations may not necessarily be captured where there are cameras. First, it depends on whether the violation is obvious. Second, it depends on whether the automated capture system or manual review identifies the driver's violation. Generally, drivers can check online within 3 to 7 working days after being captured by traffic cameras for violations. However, considering that law enforcement agencies may not update their websites over weekends, it might take up to 10 days to check. To be more certain, check after 15 days—if there is a violation, it will definitely be uploaded online by then. There are two main methods for capturing traffic violations. One involves underground induction coils with digital cameras mounted on crossbars to capture red-light running. The other uses mounted cameras for real-time recording of speeding, red-light running, illegal parking, etc. In both methods, at least three images are captured: one of the violation moment, one for license plate recognition, and one panoramic shot. Both systems operate 24/7, with images typically stored for one week.
