Welcome


A photograph of Assistant Chief Constable Steve Mortimore As Chairman of Safecam I do hope you will find this web site of interest to you in finding out more about what we are actually doing on your behalf . By viewing these pages we hope you will have a better understanding of the operations of the Partnership project and recognise the benefits we are aiming to bring to the community.


This project provides an exciting opportunity for the partners to work together to make a real impact on reducing road casualties, particularly when speed and red light jumping is a significant factor in many crashes.


We are all aware of the detrimental impact traffic speeds have on safety in our communities and we encourage everyone to slow down. It is imperative that drivers recognise that travelling at excess speed is socially unacceptable and presents a danger not only to themselves but also to their passengers, cyclists, pedestrians and others living or working near our roads.


The success of the project will be judged directly on how far we can help to reduce traffic speeds and the instances of jumping red lights, thereby reducing casualties and the burden placed on our public services and the health service, in particular, in dealing with the terrible consequences of road crashes.


I hope you find this website interesting and informative since your understanding and help in supporting the aims of the project is vital.

New email facility for prosecution enquiries

In our efforts to improve communication and customer service, we have introduced a new contact form specifically for enquiries relating to prosecutions. The new form is accessible from the contact us page, alternatively click here to be sent to it directly.


I've Received a Notice – Information and Advice

We have created this new page of information and advice for people who have received a Notice of Intended Prosecution. We have monitored frequently asked questions, telephone enquiries, and requests for information, to create this page which we hope will address common queries. These queries would normally have to be asked in writing or by telephone, therefore this new page will save people their time, and as a result enable staff at the Camera Processing Unit to deal with other enquiries more promptly to improve customer service.
