D.C. Commuters to be Scanned With Infrared Cameras 452
owlgorithm writes "Washington, D.C. area commuters are going to be "scanned like groceries at the supermarket" in order to catch single-occupant vehicles who are illegally using carpool lanes. The article, from the Washington Post, says that infrared cameras capable of detecting human skin will be installed, rather than the visible-spectrum cameras in use today. So much for using dummies in the front seat."

If we get rid of dummies in the front seat, half of the cars on my way to work would be driverless.

Good idea, I bet they can, as long as they're still warm.
Still, having to kill a different neighbor every day before work would still be a pain. I mean, not as bad as D.C. traffic, but a pain none the less...
