Volunteers, trained by the police, use portable radar equipment and an electronic digital board to monitor speeds in neighborhoods where local residents have reported incidents of unsafe speed to the police. Often these are school and playground zones.
Drivers get instant feedback, as their speed is displayed on the reader board as they pass by.
The volunteers keep records and return these to the police to help with enforcement planning. Phone your regional RoadSense Team to find out about Speed Watch in your area and we can mail you a copy of our Speed Watch Operational Guide - prepared for volunteer leaders by members of the Speed Watch Advisory Board.
