Big Brother is watching

Shades of George Orwell's book "1984" The administration just approved the purchase of cameras to monitor the clubhouse parking lot. The reason ? To catch motorists going out the in road or going in the out road. Sounds strange! But true.
The cameras are going to be state of the art high definition motion detecting marvels. That means that all the details of drivers going out when they should be going in or vice versa are going to be recorded with pictures of their car and license plates to provide proof. Then WPRF will issue a stern warning to the sinners and if they don't stop coming in the out road or going out the in  road they will be not so politely shown the out road and told to use it, and stay out until someone lets them back in. Apparently they will not be allowed back in the clubhouse unless they use the in road for coming in or the out road for going out.
What I really don't get is who is going to sit and watch the videos or pictures( there will be miles and miles of them ) to determine just who the incoming people using the outgoing roadway are ? Or conversely: who the people are who are using the outgoing road  to get in.  Then we have to ask: Who is going to pay someone to sit there and watch it all ? I suppose that's us. So not only do we have a situation where we have drivers going in and out and roundabout. We also have a situation where our money is going out to catch people coming in the out road  . Or is it money coming in to catch drivers going out the in road?
 It's all so confounding!
