A9 average speed cameras 'changing driver behaviour'

About driver in every 20 was caught travelling at excess speed in the three months after the cameras were introduced in October.
That number rose in subsequent months to one in 15, but Stewart Leggett, chairman of the A9 Safety Group - a body which involves Transport Scotland, police and road maintenance companies - said the rise was "not unexpected".
He said: "The latest data shows that in the areas covered by cameras compliance rates remain exceptionally high.
"The monitoring equipment on the route clearly indicates that there has been a significant shift in driver behaviour with the number of vehicles exceeding the speed limit reduced from one in three to one in 15.
"And more importantly the number of vehicles travelling at 10mph above the limit has been maintained at a level of around 1 in 250 since the cameras were introduced."
