Saving lives with driver feedback...

Because drivers interpret the warning from a DFS 700 as protecting their own safety, as well as exposing the fact that they are speeding, it’s a highly persuasive means of getting drivers to slow down which helps to reduce accidents and save lives.

The DFS 700 will provide you with hard evidence to show the public and your colleagues that effective measures have been taken to improve road safety. It’s an ideal tool for conducting before and after studies of traffic speeds.

The data will also help you decide where further speed restrictions should be set,whether by use of driver feedback signs or other traffic calming measures.
