Ms Moyagh Murdock:
Yes, absolutely. GoSafe has been very effective in carrying out its objective, which is to reduce speed and the number of collisions and raise awareness of speeding. It is a double-edged sword. When there is an awareness that a particular location is a speed risk zone, people adjust their behaviour. This is exactly what the zones are in place to encourage, namely, to ensure people drive safely. That is very effective.
