Slow Down

On their social media, the Dirección General de Tráfico – España (Spanish Traffic Department) has posted:

“Are you one of those drivers who slow down when they see a speed camera? With “average speed cameras,” that trick won’t work!

They don’t monitor speed at a single point — they control your average speed over several kilometers. 🔽🏁

❓ Not sure how average speed cameras work?

Don’t worry — we’ll explain it here! 👩‍🏫

🛣️ It’s actually very simple :

✅Average speed cameras consist of two or more synchronized artificial vision cameras.

✅They are installed at both ends of a road section.

✅They calculate the average speed of each vehicle along that section.

✅If your average speed exceeds the limit, you will be fined automatically. 🚔💸
