In a significant move to improve road safety, the Tamil Nadu Police have officially launched a new system of AI-powered cameras designed to automatically detect and penalize traffic violations. This initiative marks a major technological step forward in traffic management for the state.

At the heart of this project are advanced cameras integrated with Artificial Intelligence. These devices continuously analyze video feeds to identify specific traffic offenses in real-time. The AI is programmed to recognize violations such as vehicles crossing stop lines at red signals or motorcyclists riding without helmets. Upon detection, the system automatically captures photographic evidence, including the vehicle's license plate, to issue a challan.

The new system was formally inaugurated by a Superintendent of Police, underscoring the department's commitment to using modern technology to protect citizens. During the launch, officials stated that the primary objective is to foster a culture of safe driving and discipline on the roads. By automating enforcement, the system ensures fairness and transparency, building public confidence in the process.

The AI cameras are specifically configured to target common and dangerous traffic violations (போக்குவரத்து விதிமீறல்கள்). The initial focus will be on:
By addressing these critical issues, the Tamil Nadu Police aim to significantly reduce road accidents and create safer streets for everyone.
