Safety Camera Unit

Police Scotland Safety Cameras is the collective name for the three Safety Camera Units that operate across Scotland - North, East and West - which manage the administration for speed and red-light cameras. The units operate within Police Scotland funded via a grant from the Scottish Safety Camera Programme. 

You can access more information at the Police Scotland Safety Cameras website.

Police Scotland Safety Cameras aims to reduce the number of people killed and seriously injured as a result of speeding through targeted camera enforcement and improving driver behaviour.

This is done through a variety of safety cameras which detect speeding vehicles and non-compliance with red-lights. All cameras are Home Office Type approved and calibrated on a regular basis.

These enforcement cameras are located in areas most in need in terms of road casualty reduction, and deployed primarily where they will have the greatest casualty and collision reduction potential. All locations are clearly signed and can be found on the Police Scotland Safety Cameras website, along with information on the annual site selection process.

Police Scotland Safety Cameras operates under the rules and guidelines of the Scottish Safety Camera Programme. It is funded by an annual grant from the Scottish Government and receives no revenue from offences.
