As only 12$ of all accidents in the ACT occur at signalised intersections there is a clear limit to the impact that red light cameras could have on road safety in the ACT.

Mr Kesby concluded that it was unlikely that the community benefits from savings in accidents would outweigh the operational costs of a red light camera program in the ACT.

He also concluded that funds allocated to a red light camera system could be used to better advantage in other accident reduction programs.

The Government will continue to assess interstate experience and keep this matter under review.
