incidents nationwide This state-of-the-art system, powered by advanced speed cameras and radar speed signs connected to cloud-based infrastructure, will detect and ticket speeding violations, ensuring seamless and fair enforcement of traffic laws, the Department of Public Information said in a statement. This initiative is part of the Safe Road Intelligent System Project, a collaborative effort between the Guyana Police Force and the National Data Management Authority NDMA. As part of this project, new radar speed signs and speed cameras have been installed across Guyana to monitor vehicular speeds and traffic patterns. The automated speed cameras will detect vehicles exceeding the speed limit, and tickets will be generated automatically without manual processing. If a driver’s contact details are registered with the Guyana Revenue Authority, they will receive a notification via SMS or email with details of the violation. If their contact details are not registered, a physical ticket will be delivered to their address. The data collected from this system will also help authorities develop effective strategies to reduce speeding and improve road safety. (Kaieteur News)
