Caltrans installed almost 200 highway cameras around the Bay Area to help authorities improve safety and traffic management, according to officials.

The program is intended to detect wrong-way drivers and significant traffic incidents, potentially saving the lives of motorists, pedestrians and bicyclists, according to a news release on Thursday.

The department's website includes an interactive map showing all their highway CCTV camera locations, where residents can watch the footage from home.
