New Sydney road signs use low-power 'E-Ink' technology and can be remotely updated:

The NSW Government has tapped the same technology you use to read books on your Kindle to create low-energy street signs that can be remotely altered.

The electronic paper road signs, which have been installed across Sydney, are the result of a partnership between Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) and Slovenian technology firm Visionect.

[...] An RMS spokesperson told The Register that 15 of the new signs 'were successfully trialled in the management of traffic on George Street in the Sydney CBD and a second rollout has since been completed in the Moore Park area.'

    > Not in my country.

    Man I fucking hate narcissists like you who say something like that which only has meaning to yourself.

    What fucking country are you talking about?

    In the USA, what you wrote is all sophistry. That's because in the USA only the most extreme traffic/parking tickets are criminal and only criminal cases are required to meet the standard of "guilty until proven innocent beyond a reasonable doubt." Civil cases do not need to meet that standard, just a "preponderance of evidence."
