More speed cameras in 2018

In France, automatic radars “flashed” 4.9 million times in 2017 , 2% more than in 2016. An increase that the Ministry of the Interior attributes to the commissioning of 72 autonomous radars and 32 additional discriminating radars .



In 2018, a new generation of automatic radar should see the day: the radar turret , able to simultaneously flash 32 vehicles . The government plans to install 455 models in 2018.

After two months of decline, the death rate rebounded in France in September: 323 people were killed last month, 26 more (+ 8.8%) than last year at the same time .

Fewer deaths with the arrival of 80km / h?

Contrary to the national trend, the number of people killed on the road decreased  in Normandy between July and September 2018, compared to last year. In Seine-Maritime, there is a 58% drop in road traffic fatalities between 2017 and 2018 over the same period. In the Eure , there are more accidents but fewer deaths (13 people killed between July 1 and September 30, 2017, and three killed in the same period in 2018).

In the Orne , Calvados and Manche , the figures are generally down.

Would this result from the introduction on 1 July of the limitation to 80km / h? Yes according to Benoît Lemaire, the director of the cabinet of the prefect of Seine-Maritime, questioned by Normandie-actu .

“The move to 80 km   was to reduce the severity of accidents. According to these first figures, this can be verified because the number of killed has decreased much more than the number of accidents”

The start of the 80km/h, created a movement of anger throughout France. Many demonstrations took place to protest against this measure of the executive. In the four corners of the region, radars have been vandalized in Eure , Calvados and Orne .
