Poliscan is an automated system for digital speed detection and recording.

Poliscan simultaneously captures multiple vehicles in multiple lanes and in bi-directional traffic, an advantage over traditional radar or LiDAR systems limited to one lane, one direction or one car at a time.

The German Federal Office of Physical Technology (PTB) has certified VITRONIC's speed enforcement system late in 2006 (certification number 18.11/06.01). But has it been properly certified in Australia?

The laser-based system scans a 45-degree arc 100 times per second, recording the speed, vehicle classification, and distance between vehicles, to create a three-dimensional image of all vehicles in the coverage area.

The new efficient speed detection and recording system can be used with up to four lanes in both directions and is independent of time, weather and traffic volume. It can also be used in blind areas such as curves.

This is the third camera that will identify your rear number plate if you are a motorcycle rider. We are surprised that it doesn't take a DNA sample as you drive by. OUCH - what was that!

The system uses a high-resolution digital camera for documentation of the speeding violation, including pictures of the license plate, an overview picture specifically identifying the speeding vehicle, and a photo of the driver where required.

The measuring sensor developed for Poliscanspeed is based on a scanning LiDAR that is mounted in a stationary position and transmits short pulses of light out to a target. The transmitted light is reflected back to the receiver of the LiDAR instrument where it is analyzed. While the LiDAR sensor carries out the measurements with a high repetition rate, a rotating polygonal mirror deflects the transmitted signals, so that the LiDAR sensor covers the full region of interest (a sector of 45 degrees), allowing simultaneous monitoring of multiple lanes.

What on earth is wrong with Victorians allowing a State Government to do what they are doing to the general population? A small Australian state with 5 million residents, where 2.86 million warrants and Court orders exist for unpaid speed camera fines and tollway fines. Are Victorians so distracted with football that there civil liberties no longer matter? WAKE-UP!!!

The down side of nabbing the majority of drivers with a speeding fine is the inevitable rise in disqualified drivers and a steady rise in the road toll.

Concern has been raised by both supporters and opponents of speed cameras that the exponential growth in speeding offences detected will lead to a large increase in the number of people disqualified from driving, which causes severe economic consequences for those involved and may also encourage unlicensed (and therefore uninsured) driving.

Come to Victoria - The Speed Camera Mugging State of Australia. "If you come to our state with a drivers licence, we'll make sure you leave without one."

Do Speed Cameras save lives? Statistics from around the world and Australia suggest not! Why? Because speed cameras target the vast majority of law abiding citizens who travel a few kms over the speed limit, not the true causes of road fatalities! Speed Cameras are "fools gold" for governments looking for a quick fix solution to road deaths, but prove a bonanza for cash strapped governments looking to reduce police manpower and raise revenue. Add to this mix speed detection technology that is inaccurate, low speed tolerance limits and a court system that is blind to these problems and you have a recipe for disaster.

Road Patrol Cops Replaced by Cameras
Why do you think speed cameras are so appealing to governments? Simple, speed cameras are cheaper to run than real police. Speed cameras don't ask for pay rises or let off drivers with a warning - Real cops do! It's based on a false economy to save money and raise revenue. What the community gets is a rise in road deaths and a bunch of young road hoons running the streets like a scene out of the movie "Mad Max" Don't believe it? I live in Western Australia where the Police Traffic Branch was amalgamated with the local suburban police stations. So who looks after the streets now? Basically, its a free for all.
