A stringent enforcement of traffic rule with Artificial Intelligence-based (AI) checking is on the cards to book traffic rule violators with solid digital evidence. Efforts are underway to install about 60 AI cameras solely for the purpose of exposing traffic rule violations and imposing fines without any considerations.
The project is being implemented in the city as part of a State-level road safety project covering metro cities in the first phase. Across the State, there will be 726 cameras linked to special control rooms of the enforcement squads. The government will spend ₹225 crore for the mega project.
Officers with the Motor Vehicles Department say the cameras will become operational across the State within a few months. The Kerala State Electronics Development Corporation (KELTRON) will be completing the installation works and the future maintenance of the systems, they add.
