'My whole licence gone': Drivers caught unaware by AI traffic cameras
WA drivers given large fines or a licence suspension after their passengers were snapped wearing seatbelts incorrectly say they are being punished for behaviour beyond their control.
The West's version of this story was all about how AI was causing people to get fined and lose their licenses. Even the ABC story is going on about AI catching people out.
Why are we as a society incapable of accepting responsibility for our actions? It isn't a speed camera's fault for catching you speeding. It isn't an AI's fault for catching you using a phone or not wearing seatbelts while driving.
Yeah, it's rough to be fined because your passenger wasn't wearing a seatbelt. If they're an adult, I think you should be able to nominate them as the recipient of the fine.
