Traffic enforcement cameras seem to be everywhere on our roads these days, whether in the form of red light cameras, fixed or mobile speed cameras, combined red-light speed cameras, mobile phone detection cameras or bus lane cameras.
And while these cameras have different functions and capabilities, they are all meant to serve the same general purposes: to make our roads safer by detecting and thereby deterring the commission of traffic offences in New South Wales.
Traffic enforcement cameras are capable of detecting a range of traffic offences, including exceeding the speed limit, failing to stop before a red light, using a mobile phone while driving, not wearing a seatbelt properly or at all, unauthorised driving in a bus lane and even driving whilst unregistered or uninsured.
