As things stand at the minute, the police are still having to view each individual video.
As Poslovni Dnevnik writes on the 11th of July, 2018, there are currently only 28 fixed cameras in the Republic of Croatia, and the number of cases in which these devices are typically placed stands at 62.
Speed gauges are often moved to other cases and are placed in the territories of the police administration of Zagreb, Split-Dalmatia, Primorje-Gorski Kotar, Osijek-Baranja, Karlovac, and Varaždin. With that said, more and more cameras and their cases are arriving all over the country, including Slavonia. For now, there are ten cases in Osijek-Baranja County, accompanied by five cameras.
Only a very small number of police officers know exactly where actual cameras are located, and as Glas Slavonije unofficially reports, four more camera cases are due to be set up, with another camera soon to arrive in the wider Đakovo area.
”We’re planning to start with the procurement of 29 devices and 92 cases this year, which will be located in the areas od the police administration of the counties of Virovitica-Podravina, Lika-Senj, Međimurje, Krapina-Zagorje, Zadar, Šibenik-Knin, Dubrovnik-Neretva, and Koprivnica-Križevci. This will be complemented by PU Osijek-Baranja, Split-Dalmatia, and Varaždin,” writes Glas Slavonije quoting the Ministry of Interior, who are currently stating that at least for now, they can’t say exactly where the new cameras and their cases will be installed.
Although MUP recently announced the system’s automation so that the cameras, after having captured someone breaking the speed limit, automatically runs information on the owner of the vehicle, and then provides the necessary details of the committed offense, such a move still hasn’t come to fruition.
For now, the police are still having to look at and watch each individual piece of footage and determine who owns the offending vehicle solely according to the registration plate displayed.
