BC, Riga, 12.02.2015.Print version
From today, the first new stationary speed camera will be fully operational in Latvia. This means that drivers can be fined for traffic violations, the Road Traffic Safety Directorate informed LETA.

The first fully functional speed cameras began work today on the Riga-Jelgava Highway, as well as on the Riga-Koknese road.

 

According to the Road Traffic Safety Directorate, the stationary speed cameras can already be seen as a success, as the speed cameras which are currently operating in test mode have already demonstrated results, as the number of speeding cases has decreased on several roads in Latvia.

 

As reported, a total of 16 stationary speed cameras will become fully operational this February.

 

A map featuring locations of all speed cameras is available here.
