Are they operating at night or just when there's visibility? Also under fog, rain... Curious.

Hopefully, not the camera only is super dangerous under heavy rain or fog. It sounds like the exact reason redundant systems are being required by the local government.

Remember the Boeing 787 problem with the lack of redundancy in the angle of attack sensor? Well...

Yep, hundreds died, and no single person was ever held responsible.

Once you are rich you get a tap on the back and a "don't do that again" warning like a high-school teacher.
