Unique STATS19 2024 collisions within 500mA46 camera location sample
The table is a sample of the mapped records assigned to the A46. Unknown speeds, types or traffic matches remain visibly unreported rather than being filled with assumptions.

Traffic context for A46
7 of 7 camera records have a nearby Department for Transport count-point match. Their average annual daily flow is 25,477 vehicles and their median is 23,671. Source years range from 2011 to 2024; this is annual context, not live traffic.
Heavy goods vehicles represent approximately 7% of the total flow across those matched records. The median camera-to-count-point match distance is 581 metres.
Collision and casualty context
8 unique police-reported personal-injury collisions in the final 2024 STATS19 data fell within 500 metres of at least one mapped camera record for A46. This includes 1 fatal, 0 serious and 7 slight collisions, involving 12 casualties.
This is a proximity measure, not a collision rate and not evidence that a camera caused or prevented an incident. Comparisons can also reflect the number and geographic spread of mapped records.
Speeding fines and penalty points
GOV.UK states that the minimum speeding penalty is a £100 fine and 3 penalty points. If a case goes to court, the maximum fine is normally £1,000, rising to £2,500 for motorway speeding; disqualification is also possible. A speed awareness course may be offered when the police consider it appropriate and the driver meets the conditions.
Check the current official speeding penalties on GOV.UK. This page does not estimate whether a particular camera is active or whether a penalty would be issued.

Questions about this page
Does the map show every active speed camera?
No. It shows an indicative OpenStreetMap-derived snapshot. Records can be incomplete, stale or no longer active.
Are the traffic figures live?
No. AADF is an annual average from the nearest matched DfT count point. The source year and coverage vary by record.
Do nearby collisions prove that a camera is unsafe or ineffective?
No. STATS19 proximity is context only. It does not establish cause, effectiveness or current road conditions.
