Sure it can not determine if an unlicenced driver is driving the car initially but proper police checks can after they have been pulled over.

We have had them in QLD for years too, fitted to HP cars in the form of a copper with a laptop.

A copper can tell the difference between a white holden and a red falcon so can not only tell if the rego has run out but if the car actually matches the rego and if the rego is in fact from another state, something the camera cannot.....
