Original call for evidence

Summary

Review of roads policing in order to identify which current methods work best plus how the capability and capacity of enforcement services can be enhanced.

This call for evidence ran from
13 July 2020 to 11:59pm on 5 October 2020

Call for evidence description

We are reviewing existing roads policing to:

• identify which current methods are most effective
• understand how the capability and capacity of enforcement services can be enhanced to improve safety and reduce future casualties on roads

As part of the review we are exploring how:

• we can better use intelligence to target dangerous behaviours
• technology can assist in enforcing road traffic law now and in the future
• to better understand the value of enforcement in influencing road user behaviour

Since 2010, we have seen a plateauing in the number of people killed and seriously injured on our roads after years of steadily declining numbers and have instituted this review to combat that situation.
