PSNI Make Speed Detector Van Investment
The Police in Northern Ireland have invested in 10 new speed camera detector vans.
The vehicles equipped with digital technology are set to make more than £1m.
Civilians will now run the speed camera detector vans which had been operating at a loss of £0.5m, due to the manpower required by officers to carry out the work.
PSNI traffic branch Muir Clark said: "It is cheaper, it is more cost effective and that is why we do it."
Using civilian operators is now standard practice across the UK.
