Automated Vehicle Identification Systems (AVIS) are camera-based technologies used by law enforcement to detect and record traffic violations, primarily speeding and red-light infractions. Most notably in Colorado, these systems have recently expanded to include "average speed" corridors that track a vehicle across a stretch of road to calculate its speed over time, making traditional "brake-at-the-camera" tactics ineffective.

The surveillance state grows throughout the U.S. How long will it take for governments to use the AVIS system and the new kill switch to leave you waiting on the side of the road awating the police to deliver your ticket.

We have all thought about having the police waiting for us after a long trip on a toll road where the toll time stamps prove you were speeding?

Only a matter of time until GPS tracking is used to tax vehicles based on distance traveled.

Yup. Last time I was in Denver seeing a show at the red rocks, I had to get out of the HOV and back into a different lane since I misunderstood nav. What was the result? An auto created ticket. Because I exited the hov, I got a fine, automatically enforced, that no police officer would ever truly hit me with. Especially since I wasn't a resident of the state and didn't even understand that would happen.

I am glad that Colorado has turned into a dystopian hellscape modeled after California. I watched it happen in the early 2000s, a once rugged individualistic outdoorsy state is now a cesspool of fucking stupidity.

I don't think it'll spread to other states that fast, but Colorado residents get what they deserve. If you live there and don't like the politics, leave.

Exactly, this is very effective way of regulating speeding, Austria also has it for more than 10years called "Section control", where picture of your car is taken when you enter, and then again after 5-10km when you exit that area, and it compares average time/speed. Super effective
