Law enforcement now has to scrutinize hours of video footage to catch violators of national garbage laws. It is reported that new cameras with artificial intelligence will facilitate this process.

Unlike traditional CCTV cameras, the new AI-powered devices will automatically send detected violations to a control room where staff can review the footage and use the vehicle’s license plate to issue a £100 ($126) fine.

Presumably, the legal process in which the “Clean up Britain” campaign demanded that the National Road Service reduce the amount of road litter led to such innovations.

We should all be really ashamed of how disgusting and dirty our country has become.
– said John Reed, the founder of the campaign.

Reid accused the National Highway Service of “an embarrassing and scandalous history of inaction and neglect of duty”, adding: “They are unable to clean up the tsunami of garbage that has piled up in their path across the country on a scale that astonishes the imagination, destroys the soul. They are guilty of professional negligence, indentured amateurism and wasting public money.” “.

Now, the department is resorting to such steps, apparently to solve the growing garbage problem. Highways Minister Richard Holden confirmed last month that almost 40% of National Highways roads are rated “B” for congestion, meaning they contain significant levels of trash.
