Speedleader speed awareness monitors – also called electronic speed detection signs or radar speed signs – combine LED signage with LIDAR and responsive messaging to improve safety on roads and waterways.
Clear and informative LED signage, coupled with speed detection, can help protect the vulnerable in our community – whether it’s school children, young families, the elderly, employees or workers on a construction project. Speedleader minimises risk and helps organisations fulfill their duty of care.
Speeding is a major risk on private sites as well as on public roads. There are risks associated with speeding motorists, couriers and truck drivers on transport and construction sites, council and other government sites, in large warehouses, on school sites, college campuses, at care and health facilities. These are places where vulnerable pedestrians, cyclists and other operational vehicles are present. They represent substantial safety, OH&S and public liability risks. Increasingly, smart organisations are minimising this risk with speed detection device technology that detects speed, sends messages, can record data (so transgressions can be directly addressed) and which can also provide community messaging when not detecting speed violations. Speed detection signs reduce risks.
Speed detection devices display the set private speed limit. These speed awareness monitors have a significant role to play in changing the behaviour of drivers to ensure risks are well managed and reduced. Static speed signs can not do what speed awareness monitors can. Simple messages can be easily configured and have an instant impact on the behaviour of speeding drivers on private sites.
A speed awareness monitor that detects speed and captures data will help organisations improve the safety of their site. Images can also be captured allowing risk managers to provide evidence back to visiting organisations about on-site speed violations. This feature of speed awareness monitors also recognises that the risk is not just with the site operator but with the drivers and their own organisations as well.
Speed display signs are a great way to slow down traffic without adding any risks. Since methods like speed bumps can cause problems for emergency vehicles it is better to stick with a solution that will keep everyone safe. Speed display signs are great because they are easy to spot and they have been proven to slow traffic down more effectively than stop signs. Our Speed display signs are suitable for:
