As Volk said, an article by the head of the capital’s State Traffic Inspectorate, Alexander Bykov, in one of the scientific journals caused a significant resonance among the public.
In the article, Bykov reported on modern technologies that can be introduced to reduce deaths and injuries on the roads.
In particular, the publication talked about “smart” traffic lights equipped with cameras for facial recognition using biometric data.
“Some experts in the field of road safety, without reading the article very carefully, decided that the State Traffic Inspectorate advocates the total collection of biometric data of all citizens.
This is not so,” Volk emphasized.
She added that it is necessary to see the difference between the department’s legislative initiatives, formalized in the prescribed manner, and ideas submitted for discussion by the scientific community.
