Traffic cameras are now being installed in the ‘Ja Choei’ dummy policemen set up in the Thai capital of Bangkok. The dummy policemen will now be able to identify driving offenders and help establish who caused traffic incidents and crashes. The cameras are positioned at high and low angles to maximise their field of view and are linked to a central monitor using wireless Internet.
