Mobile speed camera signs are set to make a return to roads in New South Wales after a partial government reversal of the controversial policy.
Warning signs will be fixed to the roof of every mobile speed police vehicle on New South Wales roads but drivers won’t receive a warning ahead of time.
The backflip means all mobile speed cameras will now be marked to make them visible to motorists but no signs will be placed before the police vehicle. Deputy Premier Paul Toole said drivers will be able to see the new signs in time to slow down if they are paying close attention. Mr Toole confirmed the Perrottet Government had considered going back to the original policy but ultimately decided against it.
