There are set to be more than 250 mobile speed cameras active across South Wales in January 2024.
Speeding is one of the largest contributing factors to collisions on Welsh roads according to GoSafe - a partnership made up of authorities including the Welsh Government and Wales emergency services.
Not only is it dangerous but it can land you a fine and three points on your licence.
The minimum penalty for speeding is a £100 fine and three penalty points added to your licence.
In certain circumstances, drivers will be eligible to attend a Driver Education Course, which will incur a cost, but you will not have penalty points added to your licence.
The GoSafe partnership aims to "make people safer on Welsh Roads by reducing casualties and saving lives".
So to keep drivers safe and reduce speeding, GoSafe has mapped the location of every single mobile speed camera set to be active in Wales in January 2024.
Full list of mobile speed cameras in South Wales in January 2024
Speed limits on residential roads across Wales were reduced to 20mph from 30mph in September (2023) in an attempt to make streets safer and reduce the number of collisions and severe injuries.
Several mobile and fixed speed cameras have been put in place across South Wales to ensure motorists are keeping to the new 20mph speed limit.
The location of these 20mph speed cameras can be seen here.
Motorists were given a "grace period" of three months to get used to the new 20mph speed limit on residential roads.
This grace period ended on December 17, 2023 and the 20mph speed limit is now under full enforcement.
Motorists must also keep an eye out for a host of other mobile speed cameras set up across south Wales at the start of the new year - including in Newport, Blaenau and Monmouthshire.
