Mobile speed cameras are housed within police vans and are set up on roadsides.
How and where they are deployed depends on the accident history and road safety problems at each location.
Mobile cameras also operate in areas where communities have complained that speeding is endangering lives.
The actual locations for mobile safety camera vans are within the area of the site and not specifically where the vans park.
Moreover, the vans will not always be monitoring the stretch of road identified.
However, this does not negate an offence, GoSafe explains on their website.
“All speed limits should be adhered to, not just where you believe there may be enforcement.
“There are no enforcement free times, and no enforcement free locations.”
The sites where mobile speed cameras are, according to GoSafe’s map.
