Kingcopa 1st Gear September 20, 2011 Share September 20, 2011 LTA plans to use CCTVs to curb illegal parking Illegal parkers beware. The Land Transport Authority (LTA) is launching a trial of a closed-circuit television (CCTV) camera system to deal with illegal parking problems along roads. In a tender called last week to contractors to run a six-month trial, LTA hopes the system improves its detection of such offences. Two public roads have been targeted for trial, but it is unclear where these sites are. The sites, however, will be 150m long and two lanes wide each, reported The Straits Times. The CCTV cameras will capture the licence plate details of vehicles parked in prohibited zones round the clock, and under all weather and lighting conditions. The contractor who wins the tender will then produce the evidence of drivers breaking the law. The quality of images and videos will be reviewed by LTA during the trial, which will determine the viability of using it as evidence in court. The offences include parking along roads with parallel continuous white lines, a single continuous yellow line, double continuous yellow lines, a single zig-zag yellow line and double zig-zag yellow lines. This is believed to be the first time LTA is trying this method to curb illegal parking. Motorists chalked up about 22,000 summons a month on such offences, which is about the same as the monthly average issued by the traffic police from 2007 till November last year, when LTA took over this duty. A spokesperson said that that LTA ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porker Turbocharged September 20, 2011 Share September 20, 2011 Investing in a set of island wide CCTV cams probably met them superior IRR compared to what some SWFs can achieve. I mean seriously it's probably more than 20% pa Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Clutched September 20, 2011 Share September 20, 2011 This is only a stop-gap measure. The long term would be; 1) Every road/turn has a id chip. As it is every vehicle has got a IU. Restriction can be easily set into a set of programme. Say for example, this stretch of road no waiting, parking so forth. Any of such violation condition and a IU appear in that equation - viola! summon. With satellite, perhaps a picture of the violation could be captured for reference.

Rayleigh 6th Gear September 20, 2011 Share September 20, 2011 the usual stuff. Instead of them finding a permanent solution to solve the problem, they spend money, spend time, aim for world first to push the problem away. when will they ever change?

SimonTan 2nd Gear September 20, 2011 Share September 20, 2011 (edited) Easily defeated. Just buy those laptop privacy film, where only straight on can view the screen. Paste it on the licence plate.....camera installed on higher ground at an angle will not be able to accurately capture the numbers! Or just place a one inch thick acrylic plate in front of the licence plate. Straight on can view the number easily, within the law. But when viewed from an angle, the light will get reflected and not show up easily. Like viewing a straw from a cup of water, the light ray gets reflected.
