🚦📵Safety cameras - Technology trial📵🚦
See the story after my reaction. It's directly from the Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency website (link attached)
This is EXCELLENT news and it's for my safety, your safety - everyone's safety👍🏻😉
Fingers crossed the consistent repeat offenders will finally be dealt to once the trial period has finished.
We've all seen them, no seat belts, all the head down while they think we can't see them on their phones - oh bring on the end date for the trial period - YAY!!!
From tomorrow, across three Auckland locations, we're trialing safety cameras to get a better understanding of how many people drive while using their mobile phones, and how many people don’t wear their seatbelts. This trial is the first of its kind in Aotearoa New Zealand.
While these are well-known issues, we don’t currently have accurate information about the scale of them. The six-month trial will provide useful insight as well as test the technology itself.
A key part of Road to Zero, New Zealand’s road safety strategy, involves supporting people to make good choices on our roads, which includes encouraging people to not use their phones while driving, and making sure everyone is wearing a seatbelt.
No enforcement action will be taken during the trial. No drivers will receive infringement notices, warnings, or any other communication from Waka Kotahi as a result of the trial. All images taken will be deleted within 48 hours, with a small number of anonymised images kept for reporting purposes. For more on the trial, visit www.nzta.govt.nz...
