No Delhi Cop, Still Challaned For Overspeeding? Dwarka Expressway Adds On List Of Cams Watching You
From speeding tickets to helmet violations—Delhi NCR's smart ANPR cameras are watching your every move.
Gone are the days when a traffic cop had to wave you down for breaking rules.
Delhi and Gurugram are now dotted with Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) cameras that can spot and fine you in real-time, as per The Week.
Whether you're over-speeding, skipping seat belts, or riding triple on a bike, these cameras are ready to send you a challan directly to your phone.
What These Cameras Will Catch
Starting 10 July, 15 high-traffic spots across NH-48 and Dwarka Expressway in Gurugram have been equipped with state-of-the-art Global Shutter ANPR cameras. Installed by the Gurugram Traffic Police and NHAI, these cameras will detect 14 different violations, including:
Overspeeding
Not wearing seat belts
No helmets
Triple riding
Lane-cutting
Wrong-side driving
Banned vehicle use on Dwarka Expressway (like e-rickshaws and tractors)
The tech also helps police instantly respond to accidents, vehicle breakdowns, and traffic jams.
These cover entry and exit points, ensuring vehicles are tracked the moment they cross a border.
Video Surveillance to Track Every Move
The new system can detect 14 different types of traffic incidents, using three integrated technologies:
Video Incident Detection and Enforcement System (VIDES) to monitor accidents and breakdowns.
Traffic Monitoring Camera System (TMCS) to keep an eye on congestion.
Variable Message Sign Boards (VMS) to alert you about road conditions and warnings.
If your vehicle stops suddenly or traffic builds up, these cameras will inform control rooms instantly so help can arrive without delay.
ANPR at Petrol Pumps
Over 500 fuel stations across Delhi are now fitted with mandatory ANPR systems. They check:
Vehicle age (diesel >10 years, petrol >15 years)
Valid Pollution Under Control (PUC) certificate
Violations trigger instant alerts to enforcement teams.
Crime and Safety Surveillance
These cameras aren't just about traffic. They help Delhi Police track stolen vehicles, suspect cars, and criminal activity in real time.
In fact, they recently helped rescue a kidnapped child by tracing the suspect's vehicle through the system.
