UK company 561 Traffic Technology’s popular non-confrontational community speed watch device, SpeedWatch, is now able to target drivers’ distracted or dangerous driving behaviour, such as mobile phone use or failure of occupants to fasten seatbelts.

The SpeedWatch+ interactive display wirelessly interfaces to the manned SpeedWatch radar system, while a tablet device enables trained members of the public to select appropriate messages which are sent to the display to warn violating motorists.

A large aesthetic portable interactive display delivers messages to provide a clear direct message, including Mobile phone use!; Fasten seat belt!; and Excess speed!

When no distracted behaviour is detected, SpeedWatch+ defaults to a positive driver feedback speed display.
