The proposed law would enable municipalities in Massachusetts to install traffic cameras capable of mailing fines to drivers who violate traffic regulations.
Under this framework, fines could reach as high as $150, potentially impacting driver behavior and compliance with traffic laws.
However, the initiative has sparked discussions regarding the implications for privacy and due process, as automated enforcement may raise questions about fairness and accountability.
