Community attitudes
The following results from recent research* indicate the community regards speeding as a dangerous and unacceptable behaviour.
Of those drivers surveyed:
- 94 per cent agreed with the statement 'There can be serious consequences for others when people speed'.
- 65 per cent felt that speeding is as dangerous as drink driving/riding.
- 70 per cent agreed with the statement 'No matter what, I always drive under or at the speed limit'.
- 80 per cent agreed that driving/riding 10 kilometres per hour over the speed limit increases crash risk.
*Each year, Transport and Main Roads commissions a Road Safety Attitudes Tracking Study by an independent market research company, Marketing and Communications Research. The 2016 survery asked transport-related questions of a sample of 600 Queensland drivers/riders. A number of the questions were specific to the Camera Detected Offence Program.
The graph below shows the average number of vehicles that were monitored for every mobile speed camera notice that was issued between January 2012 and December 2016.

A combined red light/speed camera is placed at a signalised intersection and is able to detect both failure to obey the red signal and/or speeding. The speed detection component of the camera can operate on the red, yellow and green signal. The graph below shows the average number of vehicles that were monitored for every red light or speed camera notice issued from combined red light/speed cameras since January 2012.

Note: Penalty bracket is vehicle exceeding the speed limit by this amount. A point-to-point (or average) speed camera system uses a number of cameras over a length of road to measure a vehicle's average speed. The system uses the time it takes for a vehicle to travel between the two points to calculate the average speed of the vehicle: Speed = Distance ÷ Time.
