Garda in-vehicle device leads road safety drive
Uninsured and untaxed drivers as well as motorists engaged in other common road traffic offences like speeding and using a mobile phone while driving now face an increased risk of being detected, courtesy of An Garda Síochána’s new in-vehicle equipment.
The chief armoury in the Garda’s on-board system is Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) technology which allows cameras at the front and back of vehicle to scan the registration plate of passing and stationary vehicles.
