SpeedCamerasUK.com was launched in May 2000 with the aim of becoming the UK's leading speed camera information website. The site began with a Freeserve domain name and an online form allowing motorists across the country to submit speed camera locations. At that time all of the UK's fixed cameras were still painted grey, and the Safety Camera Partnerships had not yet begun publishing camera location information online.
The speed camera database became the cornerstone of the site - a demonstration of people power and the potential of the early internet. When Safety Camera Partnership websites began to appear, many adopted a similar format to SpeedCamerasUK.com, listing each camera's nearest town, speed limit, direction, and further details.
In 2002 the site affiliated with a speed camera detector retailer. By 2003 SpeedCamerasUK.com had its own detector shop, selling devices from Road Angel, Snooper, and other leading brands. The shop continued until 2005, when sales of speed camera detectors and GPS devices moved to sister website ActiveGPS.co.uk.
Today SpeedCamerasUK.com is home to a nationwide speed camera location database, detailed guides to all UK speed camera types, comprehensive speeding fines and legal information, and speed camera detector buying guides. Speed camera detectors and GPS devices are available to purchase from our partner site ActiveGPS.co.uk.
