Drivers are being warned about the introduction of new high-tech cameras by police forces across the UK.
If a motorist or passenger is caught not wearing a seatbelt, they could be given an on-the-spot penalty of £100, which could increase to £500 if found guilty in court. The cameras are currently being rolled out by ten police forces, and if successful they will be introduced across the UK. There are plans for the technology to be fixed to gantries, which will give them an unobscured view of all the lanes. The current National Highways trial of the AI cameras began on 19 February and will run until March 2025.
