A traffic camera is a device used to monitor and record vehicle movement on roads. These cameras can capture images or videos of vehicles, often focusing on traffic violations such as speeding or running red lights. They help law enforcement agencies enforce traffic laws and improve road safety. Traffic cameras can be stationary or mobile, and they are typically placed at intersections, highways, or areas with high accident rates. Some systems are equipped with automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) technology, which can identify vehicles and assist in tracking stolen cars or identifying offenders.
