Every motorist loathes those dreaded speed cameras, and whilst there will always be debates surrounding whether these cameras are there to help supplement police authority’s income, or to help prevent accidents and encourage safer driving, there are statistics available to support each claim.
Depending on the number of penalty points a driver is given will determine whether the first speeding conviction will affect your insurance premiums.
There is a very good chance that drivers can expect their premium to increase however on any second or subsequent conviction.
In a recent survey conducted by RoadPilot, it was revealed that 71% of motorists break the speed limit at least once on every four journeys, so those motorists may be interested to hear that RoadPilot has reduced the price of its speed camera locator in time for Christmas. This is to compete with the increasing number of mapping vehicle trackers, such as satellite navigation devices, which are now capable of built in speed camera detection.
The speed camera locator is small enough to fit into the average pocket and will warn you when you approach speed camers and accident blackspots. RoadPilot claims it’s surveyors visit every location recorded in order to ensure details are accurate.
MicroGo is the world’s smallest GPS speed camera warning system. The system uses latest GPS technology so they can act as vehicle trackers for nearby speed cameras. It comes ready loaded with RoadPilot’s database of speed camera locations and accident black spots across the UK and Europe.
Costing slightly more than the average speeding fine nowadays it will help you to stay the right side of the law. In this instance small is not a negative factor as it includes voice warnings including the speed limit.
Direct.Gov.uk reports that on average, 9 people are killed and 85 injured each day on the UK’s roads, so please remember, being alerted to accident blackspots, whilst useful, will not exempt you from having an accident, risking injury and of course loss of no claims bonus.
Drivers need to remain vigilant at all times!
