REDFLEXspeed® results

  • An Arizona State University study found motorists' average speeds dropped 9.5 mph on average through a stretch of the Loop 101 freeway in Scottsdale, prompting state officials to reactivate six fixed photo speed-enforcement cameras in February 2007.

    The study also found the freeway cameras reduced crashes by as much as 70 percent. Speeding increased by 840 percent after the cameras were turned off in the wake of a pilot program.

    • REDFLEXspeed® cameras, both fixed and mobile, have been proven to capture high-quality images of drivers who challenge law enforcement at speeds of 140 mph or faster.
