Mobile speed enforcement - Overview

Positive driver behavior change results from consistent, reliable enforcement. Drivers slow down when they believe that the consequences of being caught speeding outweigh the benefits exceeding the posted speed limit. A mobile speed enforcement system allows your community to enforce speed limits in targeted problem areas and to create the impression that a driver can be cited anywhere in the community if he dangerously exceeds the posted speed limits. 

The Sensys mobile speed enforcement system (MSSS) is a very compact self contained unit that can be deployed from the dash or rear window of an enforcement vehicle or operated remotely using a tripod on the side of the road. Setting up the system takes just a couple of minutes. If required, a customized configuration may be made on site via a handheld computer (PDA). The Sensys MSSS is a true point-and-shoot device and can function unattended. 

Flexibility

The small size of the unit enables unobtrusive operation from a patrol car’s dashboard or rear window. The small, ruggedly designed unit can also be placed inconspicuously on a tripod for remote operation. Virtually any road conditions (hills, curves, etc.) can be monitored with simple roadside custom configuration using a handheld computer (PDA).

The MSSS provides law enforcement officers with a world class, light weight, easy set-up and flexible enforcement device that provides years of trouble free operation. 

Ad-hoc enforcement

All these characteristics render the MSSS a perfect tool for ad-hoc speed enforcement as a response to changing traffic behaviour.

It has been observed that a tendency for over-speeding can be halted when the applicable speed is more strongly enforced during a certain period of time. A mobile speed enforcement system enables this to be done randomly with respect to location on a specific road and time of day.
