Simon Douglas: AA Chief Policy and Advocacy Officer on warning signs not being installed on speed cameras since 2019 - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

Zero warning signs have been installed near fixed speed cameras since the policy was announced in 2019.

Over three years ago, then-associate transport minister Julie Anne Genter said a new 'no surprises' approach to speed cameras would see signs installed in high-risk areas.

Simon Douglas, AA Chief Policy and Advocacy Officer says that these signs would be a useful safety tool for drivers in high-risk locations.

"We want the signs up to tell them then and there to drive slower. There's little point, in our view, to sending a ticket to them through the post up to two weeks later. Put the camera where it's needed, sign it, get them to slow down then and there."
