The new cameras such as not wearing a seatbelt or using a mobile phone behind the wheel.
It means they are which can only detect whether a car is travelling after than legal limits.
High-resolution 4D radar lenses and sensors scan vehicles in real-time with extraordinary machine learning tech scanning for violations.

The AI tools can then break down images and detect drivers holding a phone by studying hand positions and movements.
AI speed cameras in the UK are also linked to all UK and DVLA databases, meaning tech can quickly pick up whether a car has up-to-date insurance and tax.

It is understood that 10 police forces across the UK have been trialling the new technology in recent months.
, these include forces in Greater Manchester, Durham, Humberside, Staffordshire, West Mercia, Northamptonshire, Wiltshire, Thames Valley Police, Norfolk and Sussex.
However, data shows that hundreds have already been caught under the testing period.
Safer Roads Humber conducted two separate week-long trials in 2024,
This included a staggering 533 instances of drivers not wearing a seatbelt and 301 individuals using their phone behind the wheel.
In the summer of 2023, almost 300 motorists were caught out in Devon and Cornwall over the first three days of operation.
The cameras picked up a whopping 117 mobile offences while 180 people were found not wearing their seatbelts correctly.
RAC road safety spokesman Simon Williams previously said: “While some drivers may criticise these cameras for unwanted snooping, the reality is that these days the police increasingly rely on technology to catch drivers breaking the law – after all, it’s impossible to have a police officer stationed on every street corner.”
