Abstract: The violation of traffic lights by motorists is a huge concern, which requires innovative technological approaches that must be implemented to ensure compliance. However, developing countries are lagging behind on the adoption of enhanced technologies. This in general has always kept productivity low and has even caused social instability. This research investigates modern technologies that have been used to develop smart techniques and tools to account for traffic light violations. A survey has been done and it reveals other techniques which can be implemented as single entities or as a combination of different technologies to achieve one goal. An example of such a goal is accounting for anomalies of red traffic light (RTL) running. The use of automated techniques and technologies can assist the traffic controlling police officers who may be sometimes unavailable to observe the flow of traffic and related anomalies. Computer vision is dominating together with other technologies like Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), Radio Detection And Ranging (RADAR), induction loops and Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR. Collectively these components and devices can be called Internet of things (IoT) devices. In developing countries there is a need to embrace inexpensive technologies to ease the current traffic situations. Identifying inexpensive solutions opens opportunities of more funding for improved tools and technologies.
