Safety Cameras Save Lives

Speeding is one of the main contributors to road deaths.

Safety cameras have been proven internationally to reduce speeding.

All roads nationally were assessed by collision severity and occurrence (including where excessive speed was a factor in the outcome), to determine the road sections in which safety cameras have the best opportunity to prevent future death and serious injury to road users. 

The locations were selected based on fatal and serious injury collision data from the last seven years and speed data, as well as feedback from stakeholders.

Drivers detected by speed cameras breaking the speed limit will be issued a fixed charge penalty notice.

An Garda Síochána is committed to reducing road deaths by working with partners as per the Government’s Road Safety Strategy.

The Government’s Road Safety Strategy Phase 1 Action Plan (2021- 2024) involves 186 actions for delivery by the partners to the Strategy under the seven Safe System priority intervention areas: safe roads and roadsides, safe speeds, safe vehicles, safe road use, post-crash response, safe and healthy modes of travel, and safe work related road use.
