The West's version of this story was all about how AI was causing people to get fined and lose their licenses. Even the ABC story is going on about AI catching people out.

Why are we as a society incapable of accepting responsibility for our actions? It isn't a speed camera's fault for catching you speeding. It isn't an AI's fault for catching you using a phone or not wearing seatbelts while driving.

Yeah, it's rough to be fined because your passenger wasn't wearing a seatbelt. If they're an adult, I think you should be able to nominate them as the recipient of the fine.

If you would allow to transfer the fines, that would imply everyone in the car is personally responsible, and I'm not sure that's a good thing, I think it's better that the driver bears all responsibility, and thus also the authority about what goes on in the vehicle. If someone gets in my car and refuses to put the seatbelt, I'm not driving off, simple as.
