If you parked in a bus lane or at a bus stop along Wilshire Boulevard or La Brea Avenue between February and March, you might have been among the first in the city of Los Angeles to get a ticket issued in part by automated cameras. 

New AI-capable cameras installed on just those two L.A. Metro bus routes helped to issue nearly 10 times the typical number of bus-related parking tickets in the program’s first month. 

More than 5,500 citations were sent to cars parked in a bus lane or at a bus stop along those two routes, according to data from the L.A. Department of Transportation — a startling jump from the 570 similar tickets issued citywide in a typical month.
