Sweepers Get Cams
Posted on Apr 2, 08 11:17 AM PDT
Washington D.C.'s Council has just come to an agreement where cameras will be installed on street sweeping trucks. The whole idea behind this exercise is not to scrutinize what car each household has, but more to scan license plates and ticket illegally parked vehicles. No doubt these will be high resolution cameras, so make sure you park in the correct spot the next time you drop by Washington D.C.

New Haven (CT) already uses a couple of these cameras, but has a special traffic crew operating it. They call in a tow truck when they get a hit. It's so effective they may have to go to a Boot. They're not that expensive, and paid for themselves in less than one month. Using the sweeper is a great synergy.
