Speed Camera Database - Terms of use


The SpeedCamerasUK.com database of speed camera locations is compiled from reports sent to us by UK motorists and, occasionally, road safety partnerships.

We do not sell or share the database with any manufacturer. The database is provided on a voluntary basis and we do not have the resources to check any locations. It may take time before your report has been acted upon. If you have a speed camera detector and have any query about camera locations you must contact the manufacturer of your device. Only they can alter their own database. We have no influence over any third party speed camera database. Our database is provided on a goodwill basis only and we will not be responsible if you rely on any locations given at this website.

We have no connection with the Police, Local Authorities or the DVLA. If you receive a Notice of Intended Prosecution (NIP) this has nothing to do with SpeedCamerasUK.com. We cannot influence or contact anybody on your behalf regarding speeding fines and other motoring offences. There are many motoring lawyers and motoring solicitors who can advise you of your rights and obligations.

We cannot and will not be held liable if you are caught speeding. It is quite simple. Observe the posted speed limit and you will not be caught speeding. As well as warning of camera locations, some detectors will now also advise you of the last known speed limit on the road where you are driving. However, speed limits can change permanently or temporarily. We advise that, in accordance with the Highway Code, you observe all road signage.

Average speed camera zones: these cameras check your speed over several miles and often between several cameras. It is no good slowing down at each camera and then speeding up and overtaking every other car and slowing down at the next camera. If you have driven at 70mph in any part of an average speed zone, despite slowing to 30, 40 or 50mph for a camera, then it is highly likely that you will be prosecuted.

Nothing that we provide is intended to allow you to break the law, nor drive at excess speed – as determined by the Authorities. Location databases and Camera Detectors are available to assist you in complying with the law.
