20 Years of Speed Cameras

In 2025, the first fixed-speed camera plan marks its 20th anniversary. This measure, along with others, has helped reduce fatal accident victims by 75% over these years.

The 2005-2008 Strategic Road Safety Plan, following international guidelines (e.g., OECD, WHO, UN, EU), initially installed 500 fixed speed monitoring points and 300 mobile devices managed by the Civil Guard’s Traffic Division.

These monitoring points continue to save lives as inappropriate speed remains a factor in 21% of fatal accidents.
