1679 Gatso’s T-Series based Millia in-vehicle speed enforcement solution has been type approved by the French Laboratoire national de métrologie et d’essais (LNE) for use in France.

According to Gatso, its Millia solutions reduce speed related crashes by enforcing the speed limit. For in-vehicle use, the system components are integrated into an enforcement vehicle without altering the appearance of the vehicle. Depending on the chosen strategy, the operator can choose to enforce approaching or receding traffic or in both directions from a stationary or moving vehicle.

Gatso says each system is designed and implemented for each customer’s situation and road safety goals. For France, the system is approved to monitor up to four lanes; with a maximum speed of 250 km/h and it will monitor receding vehicles when moving and approaching and receding vehicles when stationary. Gatso’s partner in France, Fareco, will equip 300 vehicles over a period of three years.

Alexander Kleyn van Willigen, product manager at Gatso commented: “The type approval for France is the first type approval for the T-Series solution platform. It is exciting to see an independent organisation like LNE confirm the accuracy and reliability of this revolutionary new traffic enforcement system.”
