Are average speed cameras always on? Expert explains when they are not

Average speed cameras operate across various UK roads, including 20mph zones and motorways, capturing multiple offenses as of June 11, 2025.
These cameras are usually active unless signs indicate they are not, particularly during or after roadworks when cameras might remain temporarily inactive.
The latest model, the Jenoptik VECTOR-SR, enhances enforcement by detecting speeding on both sides of the road and identifying inside vehicles to catch safety violations.
Arnold Clark noted that drivers should generally believe an average speed camera is active and monitoring traffic when spotted.
This widespread and advanced camera use suggests increased monitoring and enforcement potential, potentially reducing road offenses through constant surveillance.
