DRIVERS will be able to find out which speed cameras catch the most motorists under plans outlined by the Government.
Local authorities and the police will have to publish full information about speed cameras under proposals announced by Road Safety Minister Mike Penning.
This could include data about accident rates at camera sites, vehicle speeds and the numbers of motorists prosecuted or offered training after offences recorded by cameras. It will be available by April, 2011.
Mr Penning said: “Public bodies should be accountable, and if taxpayers’ money is being spent on speed cameras then it is right that information about their effectiveness is available to the public.
“The proposals will help show what impact cameras are having on accident rates.”
