Several aspects of the 55-Alive issue that gets lost or forgotten. The argument,”won’t somebody think of the children”, (or road deaths), keeps us in a state of constant anxiety, while we lose all privacy and/or control over our lives. If mobile phone use is really causing an alarming increase in traffic collisions,.. A quick search of NHTSA provided this list of documents. It shows the driver and passenger, and whatever articles may be in the cabin. Also a feeling I’ve had a few times. Petre Peter • 2013: 3.0 Physics tell us a number of things, on of which is that “damage” is proportional to “work” that is the energy over time figure or “power”. New camera technology is available to help detect these actions. From giving you the ability to listen to audio tracks, watch videos, store and share images, cell phones can basically act as a mini computer giving you the opportunity to search the internet and perform a host of other advanced applications. If you’re staying in a hotel or an Airbnb, hidden cameras can be a worry. December 2, 2019 11:55 AM. Can one of you “duh, of course it’s causing problems” people go and check… I have, and there is no indication that the rise in popularity of mobile phones has impacted this statistic in any way. Not sure if there is a name for the rage you feel when trying to open a “tetrapack” of milk or fruit juice, when it just goes everywhere, usually the person trying to avoid it gets a good hosing down. By the early 2000s, it was common for each house to have two cars plus another one or two for kids who were now of driving age. In my country (U.S.), both government and major non-government institutions gathering and disseminating information about public health and safety do that work much more neutrally than politically. Alejandro • Data Is a Toxic Asset, So Why Not Throw It Out? And we weren’t lying, exactly. December 3, 2019 12:00 PM. • • • •

Apologies, my remark was not meant as a personal attack, merely a spirited exhortation. The cameras will use artificial intelligence to detect people illegally using their phones while driving and can be used in all weather, day or night. But we have to be willing to accept results that challenge us. [2] What my mum taught me was a strong bag with decent handles and some old newspapers (which are probably the most sterile thing in most households). That the U.S. has only about 35,000 road deaths per year — rather than some higher number — is good news. It’s a popular topic, but an incorrect conclusion. But it kind of makes my point that it’s not an “additional distraction” as that would take the numbers up, but a “new choice of distraction” for those that want to be distracted from the tedium of paying attention when driving. Cameras used for monitoring traffic in real time aren’t used for enforcement and therefore cannot be used to issue fines to drivers using their phones. Freek • December 3, 2019 12:35 PM. There is no clear connection between government policies to mitigate risk and the actual risks. Jaime • @Hauke – referenced to a document that shows that people die during accidents, and younger people (who’s distraction of choice is the cell phone) report being distracted by their cell phone. Hidden Cameras Are a Real Danger AMCSXH. There have been numerous crashes including fatalities due to people using their phones while driving. That autonomous Uber fatality could have been avoided if the supervising “driver” was paying attention instead of watching his phone. We can’t leave it to the XYZ Group to think for us. Billikin • The New South Wales Government will be trialling high-tech cameras which they say are capable of detecting illegal mobile phone use from as far as a kilometre away and issuing fines without drivers being aware. Simply looking at traffic is sufficient to reveal widespread problems of driver attention. Even on this blog, one of the homes of the concept of “security theater”, we hear less and less about “security theater” and more and more about “existential threats”. A friend who was a police officer some years ago did “traffic policing” and came to the conclusion that nobody behind the wheel ever told the truth. I can’t recall the figures but there was a several hundred percentage increase in court applications expected owing to these fines. As you can imagine there were a few words muttered that might have add detrimentaly to others vocabulary if they had been in ear shot :$. , TimH • AFAIK, it didn’t inflect anywhere around 2010, so I’m not sure why you’re looking there. However in half a century they have become a “need” that some consider essential simply because people either can not be bothered to take a bag and wrapping[2] with them or genuinely have no concept of being able to do so…, In the UK the concern about the environmental damage such wrapping and carrier bags are doing cause popular legislation to make people have to atleast buy carrier bags… It’s been a compleate failure, but environmental groups are saying that the price of the reusable bags should be trippled. December 3, 2019 3:11 AM. Features of Detect Hidden Devices: - Anyone can use - Detect Hidden Devices - Find Microphones - Spy Camera Finder - Lightweight Application - Detect Listening Devices and spy bugs Usage of Detect Hidden Devices: Just move the Detect hidden devices app near the suspected area. Well, I don’t claim to be able to cut through the PR/propaganda/marketing to the absolute truth of things, but Australia (and certainly many other countries) has been making quite a few disturbing initiatives. However, a better way to change behavior would be to have the traffic police increased and have them do a blitz on it. David • As for what it might have replaced how about “day dreaming” or “ruminating on replacing the boss”, or “keeping the job you hate”. Prior to that, mobile phones were pretty expensive and required some kind of income to sustain (meaning only people of working age who could afford such a luxury had one). I would say that “any distraction whilst driving increases the likelihood of a collision” becsuse at best it slows down reaction times in which a collision might be avoided. Cell phones today have become a lot more than communication devices. Importantly the figures that appears to be of most importance are below ~10m/S the number of fatalities are small and injuries often no more than grazes and bruising, and above ~20m/S where the number of fatalities is very high and injuries servere enough to cause breaking of bones and internal detachment and rupturing of organs. New South Wales is implementing a camera system that automatically detects when a driver is using a mobile phone.. EDITED TO ADD (12/13): The Dutch police are testing these, too.. I’d want a call duration report with numbers for both phones to show that records were indeed checked. I’ve visited authoritarian countries … there’s a world of difference. © 2021 CNET, A RED VENTURES COMPANY. December 7, 2019 1:40 AM. What is the reality?”. A1987dM • You assert that prohibiting cell phone use while driving is done for public safety reasons. Texting has been commonplace almost as long. Alejandro • Dangerous driving is the cause. The other point being neglected is mobile phone use didn’t become ubiquitous until the early 2000s. December 2, 2019 2:14 PM. December 2, 2019 7:33 AM. This personal website expresses the opinions of none of those organizations. December 4, 2019 11:14 AM. I guess self-driving cars are a promise to fix this issue. So if you are moving at a constant rate of speed, no matter how fast, they can’t tell? David • Hands free or no. It might increase it slightly, but so too would doing anything not driving-related whilst driving. Also, start an educational blitz on the danger of phones and driving? Too often as a driver, I’ll br coming down a road on the same side as a vehicle waiting to merge from a junction, and the other driver will not be looking at me. The system catches about 11 violators per hour. The media has warned the courts are likely to be overwhelmed, as the money to improve the courts capacity for processing has not been budgeted in the expenditure for the cameras. Figures from the UK’s ROSPA have confirmed this reduction in velocity year after year for as long as I can remember. The point is we are so far beyond the tipping point, often by two or three generations that going back will not happen by “fines”. Camera from three companies will be used, but the majority are expected to look like these units located on Anzac Parade, Moore Park. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. True to its name, the Hidden Camera Detector app uses your smartphone’s magnetic sensors and infra-red sensors in the camera to detect hidden cameras. Mobile phone detection cameras pick up more than 3,000 NSW drivers in a week People’s own actions largely demonstrate a complete disinterest in making personal choices to support safety and security and privacy. The cameras can catch motorists using a mobile phone at the wheel (Image: PA). Additionally, one could sue the city for malicious prosecution or using the color of law to discriminate against those with a phone on their person. New ultra high-resolution cameras designed to catch motorists using mobile phones and other electronic devices while … ht tps://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/dec/17/mobile-phone-detection-cameras-more-than-3000-nsw-drivers-week, Caseface • Way to many humans are inherently selfish in their daily actions. To let drivers adjust, warning letters will be sent to those spotted using phones by the cameras for the first three months. New South Wales legislature is considering the camera-based detection of illegal mobile phone use. About AUD1 billion or more to implement. "There is strong community support for more enforcement, with 80% of people surveyed supporting the use of detection cameras to stop illegal mobile phone use," Carlon said in the release. New South Wales is implementing a camera system that automatically detects when a driver is using a mobile phone. THE world’s first camera to catch drivers using their mobile phones has arrived – and it could come to the UK. name.withheld.for.obvious.reasons • The reason this is essential is the tax take is falling in one way or another and an incumbrant executive needs more and more income “to buy votes”. Even a badly formed basis for taking legal or criminal action requires at least a duty of care, let alone proof beyond a reasonable doubt. Never rely on politicians and bureaucrats to understand what they are doing…, Faustus • There is a “CATO” for every opinion. December 2, 2019 7:25 PM. Read the “Andy Ellis on Risk Assessment” story posted recently. I’m simply pointing out that if it is true that cell phones are causing accidents at a rate that should cause us to change the law, then there should be an inflection around 2010. In part to off set the losses that will happen when people wise up about the “faux marketing bubble” by improving their “Safeguarding of PII” and “faux secure cloud bubble” as people improve their “Safeguarding of IP”. Anyone claiming that it’s obvious is reacting with their gut instead of their head. I don’t want to wander off into politics too far, but I am with Faustus in that Australia is moving fast and hard towards becoming an authoritarian police state. I would say rather that most people care about all three of those things, but most of the time act thoughtlessly/impulsively, and have very poor understanding of how their actions and decision affect these values. When non-fatal injuries are included, these numbers grow vastly larger. Cybersecurity does need to be addressed. Australia will start implementing AI-powered mobile phone detection cameras this month. The new mobile detection cameras have, in their first week of operation in NSW, caught more than 3000 people illegally using their phones behind the wheel. It detects a phone against a driver’s head. December 17, 2019 6:49 AM. David • Further the time of a collision is proportional to 1/Vm/S thus the lower the velocity the longer the time the energy is released over thus the less power it has, thus on average the less damage.
