Excessive speed is a major factor in motor vehicle accidents
and thus, is an important focus of highway enforcement efforts. Automated Speed Enforcement (ASE) systems
combine radar with cameras to enforce speeding laws. A vehicle that is speeding is detected by
radar, which triggers a camera to take a photograph or digitally records the license
plate number, and the driver is issued a citation, usually through the
mail. ASE provides a cost-effective
method to improve speed enforcement and allows police officers to focus on
other enforcement priorities.
