In most countries trucks are not allowed to enter the fast lane of the freeway in order to provide more safety to smaller vehicles. However, when the right lanes run into congestions, some truck drivers may be tempted to temporarily switch to the fast lane to get ahead of traffic and meet the delivery deadlines. Such reckless driving is penalized with big fines whenever detected. However, there is no police around each time to see the incident.
ACTi's video based Vehicle Type Detection technology allows automatic recognition of trucks in the fast lane and automatic reporting without any human supervision. ACTi application software notifies the authorities whenever the potential violation has been detected.
