Instead of just electrifying vehicles, cities should be investing in alternative methods of transportation. This article is by the Scientific Foresight Unit of the European Parliamentary Research Service (EPRS), a EU’s own think tank.

    If you are not speeding, your license plate is read and entered into a lottery where you can win money from the pool of money collected by traffic violations.

    That’s the most dystopian and borderline insane thing I’ve read for some time.

        But how do I participate in the lottery as cyclist, pedestrian or as a resident?

          I don’t think whatever article I read about it covered that.

          In principle, you should theoretically be able to register for tracking and then have a QR code attached to the front of your bike / shirt which would enter you into the lottery.
