AES System is not foolproof, functions should be explained

Instead of making sweeping statements like, Don’t politicise Automated Enforcement System, the Honourable Minister should instead clarify in detail comments made in the letter that the System is not foolproof, functions should be explained so that the public knows they are being treated fairly, and not used instead, to line up the pockets of the service provider!

In the letter, the Hybrid Car Owner asked, "Can someone from the appropriate agency explain again exactly how the AES functions? How does it identify multiple vehicles moving at different speeds, captured side by side together with a law-breaking vehicle (mostly travelling in the fast lane)?"

It is a good question, and it raises the fundamental question on how the AES system is able to selectively take photos of vehicles that break the speed limit, or shoot the lights? I may add to the question too. How will the camera take clear pictures of motorcyclists who snake around junctions and make all sorts of illegal moves like U-turns and shooting the lights, when the motorcycles do not behave in the "standard" way a car behaves, and will not "stand still" for a clear photo to be taken?

Like the Hybrid Car Owner, I have doubts of the technical capability of the system, and unless the Minister comes up with some detailed clarification and also demonstration to us and to the NGOs, you can't help the public for thinking that once again, we have been taken for a ride, AT OUR EXPENSE!
