Article 1(2)
1.—(1) The device must include a camera which is—
(a)securely mounted on a vehicle, a building, a post or other structure;
(b)mounted in such a position that vehicles in a bus lane or selected area of a bus lane can be surveyed by it;
(c)connected by secure data links to a recording system; and
(d)capable of producing, in one or more pictures, a legible image or images of the vehicle in relation to which a bus lane contravention was committed which show its registration mark and enough of its location to show the circumstances of the contravention.
(2) For the purposes of paragraph 1(1)(d), “a bus lane contravention” means a contravention in terms of section 44(3) of the Transport (Scotland) Act 2001 in which a vehicle is involved.
2. The device must include a recording system in which—
(a)recordings are made automatically of the output from the camera or cameras surveying the vehicle and the place where a contravention is occurring;
(b)there is used a secure and reliable recording method that records at a minimum rate of 5 frames per second;
(c)each frame of all captured images is timed (in hours, minutes and seconds), dated and sequentially numbered automatically by means of a visual counter; and
(d)where the device does not occupy a fixed location, it records the location from which it is being operated.
3. The device and visual counter must—
(a)be synchronised with a suitably independent national standard clock; and
(b)be accurate within plus or minus 10 seconds over a 14-day period and re-synchronised to the suitably independent national standard clock at least once during that period.
4. Where the device includes a facility to print a still image, that image when printed must be endorsed with the time and date when the frame was captured and its unique number.
5. Where the device can record spoken words or other data simultaneously with visual images, the device must include a means of verifying that, in any recording produced by it, the sound track is correctly synchronised with the visual image.
