Security Cameras Are Placed At Some Intersections.



In some areas, security cameras can be seen as a driver or pedestrian approaches an intersection. Most often times the intersection is considered a high traffic intersection or a dangerous intersection. By placing the security cameras at these intersections, it is easy for authorities to determine specifics on traffic related accidents, or injuries. In some cases, the security cameras actually slow drivers down.

The security cameras at different intersections, allow the determination of how an accident occurred, who was at fault, or what happened prior to the accident, as well as if the accident involves a hit and run situation, often times the tag number is recorded.

To some people, they don't feel as if security cameras should be placed at intersections. However, what should it matter if they are not breaking the law or doing something wrong? Then they should have nothing to be concerned about. Yet, with this in mind, these same people could be involved in a traffic accident where a security camera is located and it be determined as not being their fault.

In any case, these people can't have it both ways. Security cameras are put at these intersections for a reason. Not only to protect drivers and pedestrians, but to also obtain information on vehicles involved in traffic accidents and then leave the scene. These security cameras appear at intersections with a high volume of traffic and can become congested during certain hours of the day.

This could also reduce the number of 911 calls that would initially flood the security boards at the local police departments when an accident does occur at specific intersections. If the security cameras are set into place police and emergency vehicles can be dispatched to the intersection in many cases a lot faster.

Security cameras at intersections can also prove effective if police officials are in pursuit of someone who has broken the law, and they are picked up on the security cameras, this allows dispatchers to possibly aid in the pursuit and the stopping of the vehicle. However, this is still in a very new process and in a lot of smaller towns and cities there are no security cameras at intersections. They are being seen in bigger towns and cities across the United States. But it is a concept that is catching on quickly, and I believe we will see security cameras at intersections in more places as time goes on.

Authorities agree it is easier to determine the true fault of an accident, as to having to chase down witnesses and others who were at the intersection where the accident occurred. In fact, a lot of people won't come forth and say what they seen. They don't want to be witnesses, therefore making it even more difficult for authorities.

With these security cameras in place at intersections, they often times can get tag numbers as well as see the actual accident through recorded images and still images from the security cameras. It can only help traffic and the accidents that occur at the intersections.

If you ask the DMV or County/City/State transportation, they say it's against their policies to actually "record" with these cameras, and they are used ONLY with the pupose of detecting vehicles at the intersections to trigger the lights. Basically the same principle of the underground detectors, but with cameras they don't have to dig up roads. If they do record then this is a major issue for the American people. It doesn't matter if you are commiting a crime or not it is still one more method governments can monitor people. We all should be concerned that this is taking place, if they are. actually recording. Our constitution and rights are slowly and systematically being taken from us. "Big Brother" is very real. The reason people should question this issue, is because these tactics tend to be the beginning stages of much more to come. Its a slippery slope if we just allow people to monitor our daily activities. If they were used for only "fighting crime" that would be one thing. But if they do record everybody's daily activities then this a problem! And anyone who doesn't believe that talk to me in 10,20,30 years! Wake up people and see the big picture! Not only ask questions but demand answers. "Homeland Security" alreadys allows officials to monitor phone calls and web browsing at will, all in the name of protecting us. How much farther these violations go is dependent on us the people to ask the right questions and just not allow invasion of privacy. Facebook promotes people "sharing" their personal information. Privacy is on the endangered species list, soon to be obsolete. Anyone who can sit back and say "oh well if you're not doing anything wrong you have nothing to worry about" is an absolute idiot. Again wake up people and smell the coffee!
