NSW AI Seatbelt Cameras Fining Drivers Over Car Pillows
Original: nsw ai seatbelt camera fines
Drivers in New South Wales are being warned that the state's AI-powered road cameras, installed to detect seatbelt and mobile phone offences, could issue fines of hundreds of dollars in cases as mundane as sitting on or leaning against a pillow while driving. Local outlets report the cameras interpret obscured seatbelts as violations, prompting concern that ordinary passengers could be penalised unfairly.
Why now: New AI enforcement cameras in NSW are reportedly issuing or threatening unexpected fines for innocent behaviour like using a pillow in the car.
