A DGT For many years, he conducted road safety campaigns, which consist of the installation of radars on the roads in order to detect and authorize those drivers that exceed the speed restriction. Of course, these types of controls are also carried out using the movement of the police, and in both cases it is very easy to find out if there is a radar or control due to various alarms that many are already used to.
Now recently also dgt He has other methods to justify you, even without youThey are very new and much more advanced systems, since they can detect violations that go beyond the scope of exceeding the maximum permissible speed on the road. And although some of them are properly noted, in many cases they remain unnoticed by the driver. In others, there is not even a warning.
While many of these new methods are installed on highways and highways of Spanish territory, others are also present on a different type of road or even in cities. Now, What are these systems that are good, even without you do not realize?
Stop the cameras, the last innovation in DGT
DGT calls them Automatic observation systemsAnd these are mainly cameras that find, whether the user uses the improper use of this sign, which makes the driver completely stop his car on the cross or similar.
The operation is very simple. As explained DGT, The camera is forever records the approach of vehicles to intersection Which is marked by stopping and detects whether it stops temporarily or not. If he discovers that the stop was not made correctly, it sends the record in which the registration number appears in the automatic treatment center for complaints. There they check what happened, and in the case that this is a violation, they send a fine to the driver.
Continuous linear cameras
A Linear observation systems They continue to have an operation very similar to cameras, but with a completely different task. They are responsible for detection whether the driver exceeds in which there is a clearly continuous line, and does it as follows.
On the one hand, DGT sets a camera responsible for reading for training all those vehicles that circulate through the inclusion lane. In addition, they set the second camera in a few meters, which is responsible for the record of the training fees for vehicles that will be included. Then the system Compare registrations To determine whether the vehicle appears in the inclusion section appears on the main road to the end of the line. If so, DGT sends the sanction directly to the driver.
Cameras of the traffic light

In addition to DGT, some municipalities are also installed in their cities Light control chambersThey are known as a photo red system and can find whether the driver will miss a red traffic light.
As described by the Madrid city council, cameras They allow the passage of pedestrians and the head of the traffic lightTo check whether the vehicle passes this strip and, therefore, does not respect the red traffic light. The capture is sent directly to the systems for verification.
Belt and mobile chambers
On some Spanish highways and DGT highways, I also installed cameras that are found if the driver You have a belt or not, or if you use a mobileThe cells of the camera use AI to check that, indeed, the driver does not use one of these elements during driving.
In addition, the cameras capture both the vehicle and its registration; Enough information to determine the driver and apply sanctions. Then the relevant reviews were made in DGT systems to make sure that, in fact, the driver did not have a belt or used his phone.
DGT also has these systems on Spanish roads

In addition to traditional radars and new traffic light control systems, stop signals and continuous lines, DGT also has other better well -known systems, but can ignore many drivers.
- One of them Section of radarsThey measure the average speed of the vehicle during this route to check if they are exceeding the permissible limit. To do this, DGT sets a camera that reads registration at the beginning of the section, and the other at the end. Then the computer system calculates the time that vehicles visit to pass this section. If this is more than it is set maximum speed, they receive a sanction.
- In some regions, as in Catalonia, they are also installed Trailer RadaraAlthough they work in the same way as traditional radars, they have several advantages. One of them is mobility, as they can move and place in strategic points. In addition, they have Wi-Fi, which allows the sanctions to be processed much faster.
- In Spain, they are also implemented New generation radarswhich have much more advanced technologies regarding traditional ones. They use laser systems and have higher quality, which makes them more accurate and can detect a larger number of vehicles that exceed the speed restriction.
