What if the fill light of illegal camera is too bright? Complaints are useful.

I've driven it several times before, but I was blinded by the fill light next to the camera.

A netizen appealed to the traffic police that he was blinded by the fill light and almost hit a pedestrian. I can understand his feelings. I was blinded by the fill light several times while driving. Fortunately, there are no passers-by on the road.

I searched online, and it is true that many illegal cameras have bright fill lights, which is quite common.

Someone even left a message on the website of the State Council.

Why is the fill light so bright?

In the reply of a mayor's hotline in Hebi, Henan, we saw the reason.

Lighting of electronic police: The construction of electronic police in our city is based on a standard of the Ministry of Public Security, General Technical Standard of Automatic Recording System for Running Red Lights (GA/T496-20 14). When installing, we fully consider the influence of the reversing fill light on the driver's sight, but the influence on driving safety is set within the normal range. The existence of the reversing fill light makes people in the front row of the car clearly visible, and several criminal cases have been cracked, especially criminals who commit crimes at night, which has played a certain role in ensuring the safety of life and property of citizens in our city.

It seems that it is really to identify the people in the car and help solve the case. But criminals shouldn't be so stupid. They won't sit in the front row of the car, will they?

Moreover, this lamp seems to be useful to all departments:

Traffic police department: mainly used to capture traffic violations such as running red lights and changing lanes illegally;

Public security department: public security needs to shoot people's faces;

Traffic control department: supervise buses and traffic flow.

In Yichang's citizen hotline, some citizens also reported similar problems, and the Public Security Bureau immediately adjusted the brightness of the lights.

In fact, the brightness of the fill light is also standard. According to the technical specification of traffic technology monitoring imaging light compensation device.

The high beam device with always-on fill light shall have a lighting brightness of less than or equal to 50 lux at 20m.

In other words, the illuminance of the fill light is designed within 50 according to this standard, which cannot be considered as an obstacle to safe driving.

Who actually knows what 50 lux is? For ordinary car owners, if the lights make me unable to see the road clearly, there must be something wrong. Do I have to buy an instrument to test whether the brightness is 50 lux?

I searched the relevant news on the Internet and found that there are really many problems caused by the lighting of the fill light. Many car owners report that this will greatly affect safe driving and have great safety hazards. The safety hazard brought by this is absolutely no less than a high beam coming from the opposite side, and this light is always on, which has a greater impact and scope.

So what should I do when I meet this bright fill light?

According to the Guangzhou traffic police, all the fill lights have "ID cards" marked with numbers and complaint numbers. If citizens find that the light is too bright to affect their vision, they can report it to the traffic police department, and the staff will check and optimize the fill light.

However, no one will risk their lives to get out of the car to see the number of the column of that camera. Explain at most which intersection camera it is.

I would like to remind all car owners that if you are troubled by the glare of the illegal camera fill light, you can complain through the mayor's hotline, the local traffic police team phone or WeChat Weibo. If the complaint is reasonable, the relevant departments will adjust the brightness of the lights.
