Red light enforcement solutions are expected to dominate the road safety market from 2015 to 2020 with the largest market share. Automatic license plate recognition solutions are expected to play a key role in changing the road safety landscape and will grow at the highest growth rate during the forecast period, as these solutions are increasingly being adopted in traffic enforcement, detection and prevention for road safety.

The market is also projected to witness growth in the managed services as well as training, support and maintenance services, during the forecast period.

The report says that North America is expected to have the largest market share and would dominate the road safety market from 2015 to 2020, due to presence of a large number of road safety vendors.
