Abu Dhabi Police announced, through it's Instragm post, that radars on Abu Dhabi roads have been equipped with new technology known as Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR).
The new technology will assist the police to monitor and manage smooth traffic flow and also aid towards reducing the number of accidents on the roads.
The new technology can read number plates, monitor traffic flow and keep an eye on the number of vehicles in a partilcuar area. It will also help monitor driving behaviour and reduce traffic violations on the roads.
The Instagram post said, “The newly introduced feature is designed to read number plates, monitor traffic flow and keep an eye on the number of vehicles. Camera flashlights are not for catching speed violators. Motorists can look up their smart applications or traffic police websites to check their registered traffic-related violations before making a complaint. Motorists are urged to abide by the new posted speed limits.”
