Shanghai's Fengxian Police Introduces First Fixed-Wing Police Drone for Highway Patrol and Illegal Parking Enforcement

TapTechNews June 29th news, according to the official public account of Fengxian Public Security, Fengxian Police Sub-bureau Fengcheng Police Station has recently introduced the first fixed-wing police drone in the Shanghai public security system. The drone has two advantages of long endurance (120 minutes) and high stability, and is mainly used for highway patrol.

TapTechNews learned that the Fengxian Public Security Intelligent Traffic Management Center is piloting the use of drones to participate in the work of investigating illegal parking, using drones to capture fixed illegal parking at low altitude, and at the same time, the background automatically sends reminder text messages to the car owners. For those vehicles that still haven't left after a statutory time interval, the police officers will arrive at the scene in time to carry out administrative penalties.

Officials said that since this year, Fengxian Public Security has used drone capture to assist in investigating and dealing with more than 510 violations such as motor vehicles parking in the crosswalk and reticular area, and has assisted in investigating and dealing with more than 340 violations such as driving in the emergency lane on the S4 Shanghai-Jinxi Expressway and other sections, effectively ensuring the traffic efficiency of expressways and urban main roads.
