Don't know why OP dropped an important regional distinction.. not a problem in Honduras, for example. Or Washington state
Should it be expanded to "Aussie"? (since "West Australian", "Australian", "Sandgroper", or "Doubleyooalien drivers" doesn't fit the title field).
I reckon the location is secondary and the interesting part is about technology enabling universal and intrusive enforcement of easy to break rules that were previously difficult to enforce absolutely.
Such rules tend to have rather draconian 'example making' penalties attached to them because of that.
Is AI camera enforcement 'not a problem' in Honduras or Washington State because they don't use them there yet? Is seeing how it pans out somewhere else first of no interest to them?
On the other hand, such pervasive and ever present law enforcement is oppressive. If the majority of your citizens are breaking a law, then your citizenship clearly thinks the law is unnecessary. We give road laws a pass because safety is quite provable through studies and we listen to our researchers, but if we scaled this out to all crimes (like jaywalking) I think you would see just about everyone is a criminal eventually.
It's actually very simple. Put a cop by the sidewalk, have them stop people and issue a fine. You'd be making several grand every day. I would do it myself, but I am not authorized to stop people and take their money. There is no need for cameras when the violations are so blatantly obvious and recurring.
Which law do you think the majority of the citizenship here is breaking?
