AB-2024-10213 - Supply and Delivery of Radar Speed Signs

Radar speed signs have proven to be effective in reducing vehicle speeds in areas where speeding is a concern. By providing real-time feedback, these signs encourage drivers to stay within speed limits, promoting safer driving habits, especially in high-risk areas such as playground zones or residential neighborhoods. When drivers see their speed displayed, it raises awareness and often leads to voluntary reductions in speed, helping to lower the risk of collisions, particularly those caused by excessive speed. In addition, radar speed signs collect valuable traffic and speed data, complementing our existing equipment. The addition of speed display devices was noted as a strategy in the Transportation Safety Plan, Focus Area 2: Speed & Aggressive Driving.
