Until now, we use helicopters to perform traffic control. But we do know that drones could be used for monitoring traffic and it is more efficient and has more of use. Drones will not only use to monitor road traffic, it can be used to catch drivers that over speed.
Kindly do back reads of comments here,
traffic monitoring is not with helicopters anymore.
most of the countries are using CCTV (live camera) to monitor the high-way and crimes at road.
Correct, and they will use also to provide a person that can handle and solve the cause of traffic whereas they can easily go in the situation like for example if there is an accident they will easily bring to the hospital as well, and can easily gave a first aid on the victim.
Most of the country are opting to use CCTV or other surveillance applications or products.
But with the use of Drones it can be used easily and in stealth in times of car chase or to
track traffic offenders on the road where some area CCTV are not installed.
CCTV is all over the cities,
most cars have their dashcams now.
there are many roads who are not covered with CCTVs.
but with the help of drones we can monitor them now, but not that at its best nor even good.
we know that drones capability to fly is not 24/7. and we dont know when the accident or crimes will happen.
This is only my suggestion what if the police/traffic police will have their own drone to be used in times of those accidents or regular car chase for traffic offenders where they can't follow the car because it's too fast they can easily unload their drones then make it follow the offender and share the live broadcast to other police who will be chasing the traffic offender.
