Advanced, cutting-edge multiple camera technology is taking the loophole out of a single camera system, reports The Calgary Sun. The result: drivers who drive even 10 – 20 km/h over the limit are guaranteed to get speeding tickets.

This photo radar technology is being tested in Britain and tracks the motorist from the minute the car enters a particular section of the road until the moment it leaves.

The system uses digital licence-plate recognition software to track the car and source the name and address of the (un)lucky motorist.

Ontario drivers don’t have to sweat just yet, though. It’s the province of Albert that’s attempting to pass legislation that will allow these cameras on the roads. In fact, they’ve already changed the law. They’re just waiting for the legislation to pass and expect the first fines to be issued in 2009.

Additionally, proponents of the system claim that its calculations actually err on the side of the motorist. The computerized cameras will be placed intermittently along a major road and calculate the average speed over a number of kilometers. The Calgary Sun illustrates how this works:

“A driver recorded at five points on the Deerfoot, doing 100, 105, 95, 100, and 115 km/h, would average out at 103 km/h — not fast enough to warrant a ticket.”

So what do you think, Readers? If Ontario implements this multiple camera system, will it slow you down?
