France has found a new way of controlling traffic and those that break the rules.

It involves drones.

Now, officials can track down drivers who speed, drive recklessly, avoid using turn signals, and more.

Previously, helicopters were used to observe and catch those who break traffic laws.

However, that was pretty expensive with a cost of about €1,500 (nearly $1,700)

Hence, the use of drones because at least 49 drones cost the same as one helicopter.

While we have not gone that far yet, 'Tsaboin Traffic Talk' recently deployed cameras across Lagos, so, that is some progress.

This happened just before Pulse readers said trailers, trucks were the cause of traffic congestion in Lagos.
