Red-light cameras are installed at traffic signal intersections. They use sensors embedded in the road or video analysis to detect when a vehicle crosses the stop line after the light has turned red. Both the violation and the vehicle's plate are photographed.
Red-light cameras are common in the USA, Australia, UK, and many European countries. They are typically placed at busy or dangerous intersections with a history of accidents.
