As part of this project, twelve speed cameras (two per province and two in the district of Eupen) have been placed and configured on the roads of the five Walloon provinces in order to record speeding offenses without application of a “margin of tolerance”. These were selected “on the basis of a census of the most accident-prone places, established by the Walloon Agency for Road Safety (AWSR)”, specifies the public ministry.
The objective pursued by the project is “to initiate a dynamic with a view to strengthening road safety on our roads and motorways”, underlines the ministry, adding that Belgium is “not the best pupil of the European class in road safety”.
If the results of the pilot project are favourable, i.e. if the number of statements of offense proves to be sustainable for the entire criminal chain (police, prosecutors, courts), “the experiment will be continued and the margins of tolerance will be gradually eliminated”, indicates the FPS Justice.
In October 2021, a similar pilot project had already been set up. Seven section radars on Belgian motorways (5 in the Walloon Region and 2 in the Flemish Region) would now operate without “tolerance margins” being applied. Since the summer of 2022, as part of this pilot project, quotas and tolerance margins are no longer applied on our motorways.
