According to the National Transportation
Library, "one third of all
intersection crashes and 40% of the fatal ones occur where
traffic is controlled by stop signs".
Automated
stop sign enforcement provides important protection for pedestrians
otherwise left out of fixed position systems on major roadways. We
have developed a wonderful new application for automated stop
sign enforcement utilizing the pinpoint accuracy of laser. The
UltraLyte's (laser) errorless range capability, and programmable
speed thresholds, allow for undisputable photographic documentation
of each violation. The lightweight and portable Micro Digi-Cam
is a low cost solution to the life-threatening act
of running a stop sign or speeding through high risk pedestrian
areas. It can be set up remotely and while unmanned, capture
the most flagrant violators.
Promoting pedestrian safety
issues should include enforcement strategies. Given automated
enforcement rapid acceptance by the courts, the timing is right
to take a look at what Micro Digi-Cam can do for your community.
The primary advantages to
any community are as follows:
Reduce the number of incidents
by 30 to 40% in the first year
Quantifies suspected problem areas from
isolated incidents
Allows Police to focus on other priority
policing issues
