    Perhaps in rare cases. But most polices can’t be arsed to make a traffic stop for all but the most egregious instances. Otherwise you probably would have a few hundred tickets yourself.

      In this case they wouldn’t have to make a traffic stop. In my country they would still have to fill some paperwork which might dissuade them (except if they need to keep their numbers up) but I’m sure there are some places where they could legally automate that shit

        Sure they can install traffic cameras and there are places that do to monitor speeds and stop signs/lights. Those are often rigged to add as much income as is ‘legally possible’. And they can be defeated if you so desire. Plus, in places like where I live, a traffic ticket must written “On the operator the vehicle” not to the vehicle itself. So cameras where I live.

        Plus, are you content to let a stupid drive continue to drive and endanger everyone else he passes on the road?
