Is the older man now a runner? The number of elderly people who are arrested for speeding after the installation of Orvis



Speaking of speeding, young people seem to have many images, but speed cameras (Automatic speed breaching apparatus, Orbis) has been installed, it seems that crackdown on elderly people over the age of 60 is increasing. What on earth is it?

Details are as below.Why speed cameras hit over-60s hardest

As a result of a survey conducted in the UK, it became clear that the percentage of drivers over the age of 60 that were caught speeding increased about six times as much as the previous 10 years ago. In addition, it seems that young people also indicated that they adapted well to the introduction of speed cameras. Young people set the place of installationSearch by netDo you mean that it corresponds to it?

This survey was conducted by the Transport Research Laboratory (TRL: Transport Research Institute) at the request of the British Transport Authority and compared and analyzed the number of cleared for three years between 1997 and 1999 and three years from 2003 to 2005 thing. To summarize the results,

· The number of men over the age of 60 who received deduction for speeding violation increased by 5.4 times.

· For women aged 60 and older, despite the small number of people originally, they increased by 12 times.

· Only under 18 years of age has increased by 18%.

· During the period from 1997 to 1999, the number of offenders under the age of 25 is more than twice the number of offenders over the age of 60.

· In the period from 2003 to 2005, the number of offenders aged 60 years and over is nearly three times the number of offenders under 25 years old.

· The most number of offenders during the period from 1997 to 1999 was the age group of 24 to 34 years old.

- The most number of offenders during the period from 2003 to 2005 was the age group of 45 to 59 years old.


To these results, it seems that the number of speed cameras, which was less than 500 in 1997, increased to about 5,000 in 2005, which seems to have a big influence. The number of cleared cases by speed camera reached the peak of 1.91 million cases in 2004 from 337,000 cases in 1997, and in 2006 it reached 1.74 million cases.

In the days when police officers were cracking down rather than cameras, elderly people were analyzed as being the cause of the increase in the number of violators of the elderly, often being overlooked only by oral care. It seems that the number of elderly people who speed violation did not increase but the elderly who got caught by speeding violation increased.
