NovoaGlobal Speed Camera Photo Enforcement

FIXED SPEED SAFE

Speed enforcement issues with vehicles driven over the speed limit are a problem all around the world – particularly in zones where people are either nearby or crossing the road. Such areas often already have a reduced speed limit to minimize accidents, and include school zones, hospitals, residential areas or other places with a high volume of pedestrians, especially children and elderly people.

Enforcing speed limits is time-consuming and dangerous for law enforcement officers. The solution is Hitecsec's Speed-Safe, a speed enforcement solution that captures speed violations with state-of-the-art digital camera technology. The Fixed Speed-Safe system can be permanently placed in areas that are particularly known for dangerous speeding. When signs are posted that the area is photo enforced, speeding violators will either slow down or learn the hard way by receiving a ticket.

According to the National SAFE KIDS Campaign® across the United States in the year 2000, pedestrian injuries are the second leading cause of unintentional injury-related death among children aged 5 to 14. Each year, 650 pedestrians aged 14 and under die in motor-vehicle-related traffic accidents in the United States. An additional 20,000 children suffer from motor-vehicle-related pedestrian injuries. The total annual cost of traffic-related pedestrian death and injury among children aged 14 and under is more than $7.2 billion.
