Ald. Daniel La Spata persuaded the City Council's Committee on Pedestrian and Traffic Safety he chairs to let Chicagoans use their cellphones to provide the city with recorded evidence of bus, bike lane and crosswalk parking violations.
basically if you take a photo of the violation it will go to the department that issues citations and it will be evaluated to determine if one should be sent. Way more scrutiny than the automated camera ones.
I would trust the output of an automated system (excluding AI) more than the output of a human, so the difference in scrutiny makes sense. Although I’m not sure how good the automated system is, so I can’t say definitively that’s the case.
I don’t think anything like traffic tickets or such should be 100% automated. I don’t mind an automated filtering mechanism but I think every citation should be written out and signed by someone with all the required trainings and such and they should have viewed and verified that in their opinion a violation occured.

You mean they’ll check to see who the car belong to, and if they’re one of the people that is above the law.

Oh for sure needs a human in the loop. I was just thinking of why this system would have more scrutiny by default.
