The partnership is keen to
work with the local community to avoid collision hotspots
being created, which is why we carry out speed surveys at
all locations brought to our attention.
If results show that there is a genuine speeding problem in
the area, we will begin a graded response to the issue which
initially involves deploying speed indicator devices on several
occasions at different times of the day. These flash up drivers'
speed but do not issue any tickets. If this does not have
a positive effect on driver behaviour, mobile cameras will
then be deployed. However enforcement may commence immediately if it is felt in the best interests of safety.
There has to be three fatal or serious injury collisions for
a new fixed site and one for a new mobile site. However, the
partnership is allowed to spend 15% of deployment time at
sites of genuine public concern where there is a speeding
problem in order to avoid that location becoming a collision
hotspot in the future.
If you are concerned about speeding in your area, please contact
your local authority or local police Area command, clearly
stating exactly where you feel drivers are exceeding the speed
limit.
