PoliScan^speed camera snaps 20,000 traffic offenders in five days | 23.12.2011

Wiesbaden / Perth. Only a few days into operation a PoliScan^speed speed enforcement system is currently delivering convincing results in Perth, Australia: In just five days the system from machine vision specialist VITRONIC caught 20,000 speeders – despite widespread publicity of the system’s installation.

The Australian website “Perth Now“ quotes Police Minister Rob Johnson “When you get 20,000 people in five days exceeding the speed limit on the Mitchell Freeway, these people are just absolute plain idiots.”

The Australian Police’s figures once again show the superiority of modern speed enforcement systems. PoliScan^speed from VITRONIC captures considerably more violations than conventional technologies. It operates with state-of-the-art LIDAR technology that makes in-road loops and sensors a thing of the past. The laser based enforcement system is reliable even in challenging situations such as road work areas and bends or when vehicles tailgate or change lanes.
