Description

New roadside cameras in Western Australia have captured shocking driver behavior, including painting nails, using laptops, and even holding babies while driving. These cameras generated $13 million in fines during an eight-month trial, catching drivers using iPads and phones. A truck driver was caught operating a laptop and phone without hands on the wheel, traveling over 100 km/h. Over 31,000 fines were issued for mobile phone use, seatbelt violations, and speeding. The government warns that distracted driving and improper seatbelt use are major contributors to road fatalities, and fines will be issued for these unsafe actions.
