Impaired driving is bad, okay?
Fancy road safety cameras with artificial intelligence are being used in a new pilot to catch drivers under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
Geoff Collins, UK general manager of Acusensus, told TopGear.com: “The technology is monitoring multiple attributes, for example, the way a car is moving down the road. If the vehicle falls outside expected behavior, the system can flag it and an intercept team further down the road can pull the driver over for further investigation, using their professional discretion.”
Collins confirms that the system isn’t intrusive to the way folks live their lives, and the car doesn't share any info either, unlike other patents. But officers will not only stop drivers the system flags, they will also pull over other drivers exhibiting suspicious behaviour, by way of testing the system, collecting more data, and generally, er, doing their jobs.
