明年6月之前,全岛240台高科技电眼
The police are replacing their old-school red light cameras,
which use film, with modern digital ones.
They have put in an order -
worth several million dollars - with a German company for 240 sets
of these 11 megapixel cameras, which can take sharper images and be
able to pick out offenders in multiple lanes at
intersections.
The cameras will also allow
the police to download the pictures remotely instead of having to
retrieve and process the film.
It was reported in December
that the 240 cameras at traffic junctions islandwide will be
replaced by new digital ones, which will be operational at all
times and have enhanced capabilities to better identify vehicles
that run red lights.
