450 cameras placed to observe traffic violations in Hanoi
According to the Hanoi Traffic Police Division, since early this December, about 450 cameras have been placed at more than 150 intersections in the city. The cameras record images of the violators, their vehicle plate numbers, and the time and place of the violations.
The Hanoi Traffic Police Division said after the surveillance camera programme went into effect from the beginning of December, the police issued fines to more than 200 drivers violating traffic regulations.
Under the programme, the cameras record images of the violators, their vehicle plate numbers, and the time and place of the violations, which are then transmitted to the centre.
Police on duty at the centre then find the violators' identification and addresses, and issue appropriate punishments.
According to the Hanoi Traffic Police Division, beside using images from the cameras, the police also received images recorded by residents that showed traffic violations. The police use those images as a basis to issue fines to violators.
To avoid issuing incorrect punishments, the police will check carefully the images.
A total of 50 LED screens open from 7am to 10pm every day at the Hanoi Traffic Controlling Centre to receive images and data of traffic violations. Police working at the centre connect with the police on duty at intersections to discuss the violations and issue proper penalties.
