The butt determines the thinking. In his previous life, Jin Feng only started buying a car and driving after going to work, but he still received several tickets.
There was a speeding ticket among them. The location of the camera was extremely hidden, and it wasn't at an intersection. Maybe because the map hadn't been updated yet, Jin Feng didn't expect there would be a camera there, so he got caught.
Jin Feng also complained about this on WeChat Moments, complaining that the camera was just for fines.
Now sitting in the position of a policymaker, Jin Feng reflected on it again and realized that the ticket was not a loss.
The location of that camera is an area prone to accidents. Because the road conditions are very good, many cars will speed up unknowingly when they reach that section. Even Jin Feng, a novice, ran more than 100 yards at that time.
Less than a year after that section of road was opened to traffic, there have been seven or eight traffic accidents, two of which resulted in serious casualties. Therefore, the local traffic control department installed speed cameras on that section, and also restricted areas prone to speeding.
A section is set as an interval speed measurement zone.
In fact, if you really want to talk about it, the purpose of installing speed cameras is indeed to fine money, but it is not just to fine money, but to use fines and points deductions to force speeding drivers to slow down.
Map software in previous generations would basically synchronize camera positions and provide reminders in advance. Normal drivers would slow down when reminded and maintain a safe speed within the zone speedometer.
If the map reminds you and you are still speeding, you can’t blame anyone for being fined.
“Road Safety Act?”
This was the first time Princess Ninth heard the name of this kind of law: "What kind of law is that?"
"It is a law that specifically governs road safety," Jin Feng explained: "For example, if you don't brake when going downhill, which poses a safety hazard, you will be punished!"
After hearing this, the Ninth Princess was dumbfounded: "Isn't that true? If we enact such a law, will we be accused of excessive taxes by merchants?"
"Why not? There are so many dangers like just now. He is pulling something weighing hundreds of kilograms. If he hits a passing citizen, he might really kill someone."
"It is indeed dangerous, but if laws are made to punish people for this, I think it is a bit excessive," said Ninth Princess: "The basis for this kind of legal punishment is difficult to define, and it is easy for grassroots law enforcement officers to exploit loopholes.
If there are too many law enforcers taking advantage of loopholes, it may affect the court's credibility."
"This..." Jin Feng also hesitated a little.
What Princess Ninth said makes sense.
It is useless just to formulate policies well; they must be implemented.
In previous lives, the traffic control department's main basis for issuing penalties was photos captured by various cameras.
Even so, there will still be people taking advantage of loopholes.
What's more, Dakang doesn't have cameras now?
Whether it is against the rules or not is basically the word of the law enforcer.
In this case, it is a big test for law enforcement officers.
The human heart is the least able to withstand the test, especially when it comes to money.
In these days, there are no cameras or law enforcement recorders. Will grassroots law enforcement officers keep the fines in their own pockets? Will they over-enforce the law in order to get more fines and fish for law enforcement?
Jin Feng thinks it is very possible.
It is even possible that some originally upright law enforcers may become corrupt as a result.
Nowadays, the business environment in Sichuan and Sichuan has just become better. If there are too many cases of excessive law enforcement and fishing, it will definitely affect the business environment, dampen the enthusiasm of merchants, and may even affect the credibility of the court, making merchants feel that the high-level officials of the imperial court are instructing law enforcement.
The person is fined.

Thinking of this, Jin Feng knew that he wanted to keep things simple.
After thinking for a moment, she looked at Princess Ninth and asked in a consultative tone: "Then what do you think about letting people set up some warning signs at sharp turns and steep downhills?"
"Okay!" Ninth Princess said: "If you can't control it like this, then if you legislate it, there's nothing you can do about business."
As the two of them talked, the convoy crossed the mountainside and began to descend.
They went down the mountain, while the merchants who came from the direction of Xihewan carrying goods went up the mountain.
When going down the mountain, each of these merchants rode very fast. When they went up the mountain, they became weak and couldn't pedal at all. They could only push them when they came down.
Some people carry so much stuff that their legs cannot push it, so they have to hire someone to help push it behind them.
Therefore, a new industry was born - cart pushers.
Some people who live near Dashang Slope will wait at the bottom of the slope when they have nothing to do, specifically helping merchants push carts behind.
The grassland is flat and flat, and even if there are mountains, they are hills. It is rare to see steep cliffs.
Princess Lu Jie kept her windows open along the way, either looking at the merchants and people on the road, or looking at the endless mountains in the distance.
At noon, the cavalry arrived in the north of Jinchuan County and stopped at a Jinchuan inn to rest.
The Secret Service came over yesterday to inform us, so the inn was already prepared to receive it.
Iron Hammer divided the guards into two groups, one group ate with Jin Feng, and the other group went to feed the horses.
After resting for half an hour at the inn, the convoy got back on the road.
In the middle of the afternoon, Princess Lu Jie saw a large gray-white house standing on both sides of the mountain road in the distance.
There didn't seem to be a single crack in the exterior wall of this house, and it looked like it was made of a single piece of stone. Princess Lu Jie couldn't help but think of the first time she saw this kind of house in the East China Sea.
At that time, she thought that the house was built with a single piece of stone, and she lamented to the maid that Dakang's architectural style was so unique that it was possible to hollow out such a large stone to make a house.
Later, after Jiang Wenwen explained it, we learned that that kind of house was not hollowed out from a single stone, but poured with cement.
Seeing that she didn't understand, Jiang Wenwen took her to visit a building under construction. Only then did Princess Lu Jie know what the cement was about.
Now that she saw this big house, she recognized it. It was also made of cement concrete.
On the platform on the top of the house, there are also tall catapults and heavy crossbows.
Although the heavy crossbow and catapult have not been used for a long time, just putting them there looks very oppressive.
"Miss Jiang, what is that?" Princess Lu Jie asked, pointing to the fortress.
"In the past, when Xihewan was not yet developed, bandits attacked and harassed it many times. This was the first line of defense used to deal with bandits and protect Xihewan.
There are no bandits in Jinchuan now, and this thing has not been used for a long time."
Jiang Wenwen introduced: "After passing this fortress, we officially enter the boundary of Xihewan."
There are still bodyguards stationed on the fortress, but when they saw Iron Hammer leading the team, the bodyguards immediately understood that Jin Feng and Ninth Princess were on the carriage behind them. They did not stop them at all, but came to the bottom of the fortress and lined up to salute the motorcade.
.
Iron Hammer returned a military salute to the bodyguards, and then drove the convoy through the fortress.
