I’m sure it won’t take long - once they have that, won’t need speed traps or red light cameras any longer, a little software and the tickets can automatically flow based on the data from these things.

The technology is already in place. I recently helped out installing computers for an auto mechanics class and the instructor showed us that the technology and plan is for the EPA or state you live in to easily monitor your vehicles emissions and when your check engine light goes on fine you for every day that is active.
