Controversial mobile phone and seatbelt detecting cameras to double in WA

Gambar
Complaints over new mobile phone and seatbelt detecting cameras come just weeks after WA signed a contract to double their rollout. The Western Australian (WA) government has confirmed it has signed a contract for six more trailer-based ‘multi-function’ cameras, along with multiple new fixed-camera sites. The six portable trailer-based cameras are capable of using AI to simultaneously detect mobile phone usage, seatbelt non-compliance, point speed and average speed, as well as unregistered vehicles, according to the camera supplier Acusensus. All of the six additional trailer-based cameras, bringing the state’s total to 12, are expected to be operating on WA roads by September 2026.  Criticism of the new mobile phone and seatbelt detection cameras has received widespread media coverage in recent days, with a range of listeners voicing concerns to ABC Perth radio last week about fines they consider unjust.

Gambar
The Cross Country flagship of Volvo’s smallest and fastest-ever production car is a strange and heady mix of off-road ruggedness, Swedish minimalism and unapologetic straight-line speed. Skip ahead: Introduction Running costs Price and specification Energy use Interior space and comfort On-road assessment Connectivity and infotainment Summary Safety Next steps 2026 Volvo EX30 Cross Country Volvo’s ‘XC’ legacy began in the mid-’90s with the V70 Cross Country, a rugged wagon featuring increased ground clearance and protective cladding for soft-road adventures. The Swedes are famously expressive with their nomenclature. Take Ikea, for instance: its product catalog featured such iconic names as the Fartfull children’s workbench and the Krakklover pillow (both were renamed shortly after their global release, but not before the inevitable memes went viral). Even for the esoteric Swedes, the title ‘XC EX30 EV SUV’ was a step too far: instead, w...
