Show Notes
Western Australian drivers are grappling with escalating fines from AI-assisted road safety cameras, which have issued around thirty-six thousand seatbelt infringements since last October. The cameras, designed to enhance safety, have sparked controversy as drivers often unaware of brief lapses by passengers, particularly on busy freeways. Personal accounts of unfair fines, such as a grandfathers daughter being penalized for a childs seatbelt adjustment, have flooded talkback radio and social media. In response, the Transport Minister has reminded drivers of the appeal process, and a full review of the process is underway, considering shifting penalties to the actual passengers.
