Existing video surveillance based methods are passive and require significant human assistance. In general, such systems are infeasible due to involvement of humans, whose efficiency decreases over long duration. Automation of this process is highly desirable for reliable and robust monitoring of these violations as well as it also significantly reduces the amount of human resources needed. Also, all major cities accross the world are adopting systems involving surveillance cameras at public places. So, the solution for detecting violators using the existing infrastructure is also cost-effective.

However, the unavailability of benchmark dataset of real traffic videos is the major bottleneck in doing research. We collected a dataset of real sparse traffic videos to start the research on this topic from the surveillance network at Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad, India (IITH) campus. It is a two-hour surveillance video data collected at 30 frames per second. Figures present sample frames from the collected dataset.
