Metro buses using AI cameras to issue parking tickets [Video]

LOS ANGELES – Artificial intelligence will soon be helping LA Metro buses to issue parking tickets to vehicles parked in bus lanes – no police officer even necessary.

The camera-based automatic ticketing system will monitor bus lanes for blockages. The system scans the license plates of cars and sends information to the LA Department of Transportation.

SUGGESTED:

The person will then verify the information and mail out a ticket.

There will be a 60-day grace period when the cameras launch.

Fines will range from around $300 for a first offense to $400 for repeat offenders.
