Indonesia's Police Prepare for 2027: 5,000 Electronic Traffic Cameras Set to Be Installed
The Indonesian National Police (Polri) is gearing up to meet the demands of an increasingly technology-savvy society by deploying a network of electronic traffic cameras. By 2027, the force aims to have 5,000 such cameras installed nationwide.
According to Polri officials, these ETLEs - Electronic Traffic Monitoring System - will come in various forms. There's the handheld version, which resembles a small box that doubles as a scanning device and mobile phone. This particular model is only available to certified polices officers for use on the job.
The portable ETLE variant looks remarkably like its stationary counterpart found along roadsides. However, it offers an added convenience - with the ability to be secured to a patrol car via a clip, allowing police personnel to take their equipment wherever they go.
In a more futuristic turn of events, mobile ETLEs are set to be installed in police cars, boasting eight cameras each within a single vehicle. This development aims to bolster law enforcement's capabilities in tracking and monitoring traffic movements nationwide.
It remains to be seen how effectively these electronic surveillance systems will help the Indonesian National Police address the growing issue of road accidents and traffic congestion.

. Mungkin perlu ada aturan yang jelas kalau siapa yang tak fotoin diri sendiri ketika dihentikan bisa dihukum nggak?
siapa yang pikir teknologi bisa membuat kita lebih aman di jalan? tapi kalau polisi punya teknologi untuk memantau dan mengawasi kita semua, apa artinya? mau kita menjadi labes atau tidak? kalau ingin aman di jalan, kenapa kita harus menunggu polisi siapkan teknologi pertama-tama? ini bukan soal konflik, tapi tentang keamanan kita sendiri! 
. Dengan adanya 5.000 kamera elektronik lalu lintas, pasti polisi akan lebih efektif dalam mengatur lalu lintas dan mencegah kecelakaan. Tapi, gue khawatirin banget sih, kemanapun kita nonton aksi ini di rumah atau di tempat umum, kalau ada kamera, itu berarti kita tidak memiliki privasi yang cukup 
. Gue harap ada aturan yang jelas tentang penggunaan teknologi ini, biar tidak terjadi kesalahpahaman dan privasi kita tetap terjaga
