Greece wanted to use AI to monitor traffic. The problem came when the fines had to be reviewed.

▤ Summary

Greece is piloting a digital traffic violation system that uses AI cameras to detect infractions and route them through human police review before issuing fines. The article highlights a major accuracy problem in the pilot, with Ta Nea reporting that 90% to 95% of generated records may be incorrect. The system has already produced thousands of records, but most were rejected during validation, especially for behaviors like mobile phone use and seatbelt detection. The piece also shows that the broader digital fine workflow is creating disputes, appeals, and a need for more reliable image analysis and procedure controls.
