RSA welcomes roll-out of speed cameras

The Road Safety Authority is welcoming the roll-out of a network of privatised speed cameras across the country.

The 45 mobile units will be placed across the country in a bid to cut deaths on the nation's roads.

Up to 157 people have been killed and 310 injured as a result of speeding in the past three years.

Head of the Road Safety Authority Noel Brett has said it is not a money-generating exercise.
