They are located on our high risk roads and intersections to prevent speed and red-light offences.
The WA Police Force is happy for drivers to be aware of most speed camera locations to encourage you to slow down and try to prevent a serious or fatal collision.

How speed safety cameras work
Show moreFixed and mobile speed safety cameras are used in conjunction with a digital back-office software application to process evidence gathered by the cameras. The devices are calibrated annually.
The types of cameras used are:
Fixed site and mobile speed safety cameras
These cameras use technology to track and detect vehicle speed. They can be operated on a tripod, in a vehicle or trailer or in a road-side cabinet.
They are able to track several vehicles across multiple lanes simultaneously.
Red-light/speed safety cameras
These cameras are located at traffic light-controlled intersections and photograph motorists who contravene red traffic lights and/or speed through the intersection at any phase of the lights.
Red-light incidents are triggered when a vehicle is detected moving beyond the white line. Once the light phase has changed to red, the video is used to confirm the vehicle continued through the intersection.
Speed is detected using in-road sensors and/or tracking radar. If the vehicle's speed is greater than the posted speed limit, a photograph and video of the vehicle is captured.
Selecting locations
Show moreThe criteria for the selection of all mobile speed camera locations is:
- speed related fatal or serious crashes
- speed related complaints
- school zones
- locations where more than 15% of road users exceed the posted speed limit.
Red-light/speed safety cameras are installed at selected locations based on an analysis of the number of 'right angle' and 'right turn through' crashes at a traffic control light intersection as well as crash severity and traffic volumes.
Not every intersection is suitable for a red-light/speed safety camera.
Compliance and certification
Show moreThe WA Police Force has in place strict requirements for the accuracy of speed and red-light safety cameras.
All devices are assessed, tested and re-calibrated every 12 months.
Regular speed comparison testing is conducted at red-light/speed safety camera sites.
Additionally, the camera operator is responsible for the unit during deployment to ensure the device is operating correctly.
Revenue from infringements
Show moreAll money collected from speed and red-light safety camera infringements goes into the Road Trauma Trust Fund Fund and is spent on various road safety programs such as community education and improving road safety coordination.
