As of 2025, Australia will be the first country to require new drivers to wear GPS tracking devices. The astonishing regulation seems to be made mainly to protect beginner drivers as well as road safety. Australian officials expect that monitoring data in real-time will help control the levels of overspeeding, reckless driving, making dangerous turns and hence, improving Australian road safety.
Safety of Untested Drivers
People under the age of 25 have been recognized as a group of individuals that are vulnerable to road accidents and risky driving behavior. There are records that show during the first few driving years, they are far more likely to be involved in a catastrophic accident. Australian transport authorities have decided that the best way to solve this will be to issue GPS tracking devices and applications to provisional and learner license to help monitor and assess their driving.
What is the New GPS System
These government issued GPS devices not only save geospatial data but also assess the geospatial speed, directions and the routes taken. There is a possibility that the devices will be able to monitor internationally and will also be able to assess geo and meteorological data. The data will be made available to transport authorities as well as guardians of the underage drivers, thus providing a level of control.
Assessing Civil Liberty and Privacy Resources
The issue of tracking civil liberties and personal privacy is thorny. Rild civil advocates, on singularly tracking an individual, someone begins to conflict with liberties and civil rights and expresses alarm on how the data will be employed. Within driving records, the state seldom claims, and wrongly so, the data will be, “encrypted and governed on an Uhr regime on the time kept per limited bounds reserved, apart, of course, for the investigation of driving records and driving offenses’.”
The Failure to Social Legal Controls Crimes of
The legislation is very punitive if any form of compliance. New trainees are left with the option of enduring punishment of close to 1,500 for not activating the the GPS Box. In the very first time the driving jurisdiction is taken, the driving box is kept under close surveillance and control, with windows of extended period of provision licenses kept for control. There is focus, strongly, that the punishment system very rigidly, is truly self, for the system to function better.
Forecasts on the Impact of the New Capital GPS Technology to Driving
There is ability to self improve on the improper driving skills committed. Self correction is needed in the, what is called, daft range of techniques of, control. There are estimates, having records of travel in the first two years, the prediction of acccidents is sometimes taken to be 20%. Driving lunatics and novices are called the base for self improvement.
Australia’s Introduction of a New Era in Road Safety
While establishing swift new drivers with GPS trackers may seem to some as a breach of privacy, rest assured that a driving GPS is a measure designed solely to mitigate road traffic casualties. Few would dispute that geofencing technology is leaps and bounds ahead of its time.
