This is why, under GDPR (or whatever the UK now calls it), you have the right to challenge automated decisions that have been made against you and demand that a human makes an assessment.

Choose That Number Plate With Care...
or you could be getting a fine from someone who can't cross the road properly.

A driver was fined for being in the bus lane after cameras picked up a woman wearing a T-shirt with ‘knitter’ printed on it.
The pedestrian appears to have been mistaken for the car of David and Paula Knight whose number plate reads ‘KN19 TER’.
Surrey-based David, 54, knew something was wrong when he received a penalty charge notice from Bath Council, despite not having been near the city.
He and Paula looked closer at the ‘photographic evidence’ provided and noticed that there was no vehicle pictured, the Daily Mail reported.
Instead a woman was seen strolling down the road proudly displaying the novelty T-shirt
The couple contacted the council who thankfully saw the funny side and agreed to waive the £90 fine.
Paula, 54, a mother of two, said that the council call handler ‘burst out laughing’ when told about the blunder.
‘Obviously no one had looked at the picture and it had been computer generated’, she said.
David, whose personalised number plate is a nod to his nickname ‘Knighter’ said: ‘We’ve been laughing about it a lot. There was no way I was going to pay for a woman walking in a bus lane with a funny T-shirt on!’
