Everyday life. Here are the top 10 radars that flashed the most in 2020

In 2020, despite the pandemic, more than 12 million speeding cases were detected by fixed and mobile speed cameras installed along French roads, according to the latest road safety statistical report. It is thus more than 6.5 million points that have been removed from the drivers’ driving licenses after a flash by one of the 4,400 automatic control devices.

Some of them have witnessed more offenses. “The speed cameras that flashed the most are fixed speed cameras, located on very heavy traffic axes”, summarizes the National Interministerial Road Safety Observatory (Onisr) in his report.

On this occasion, the Onisr drew up the list of the ten radars having flashed the most during the year 2020

In third place, the radar located in Floirac (Gironde), on national road 230 in the Lormont-Villenave-d’Ormon direction, photographed more than 126,000 speeding motorists.

The surroundings of Paris overrepresented

The 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th and 9th places in this ranking are all occupied by radars located in the Paris region: three are installed on the A10 in Essonne, one of them on the A6a at Arcueil (Val-de-Marne) and last is in Paris on the A6b. They recorded between 119,000 and 76,000 speeding tickets.

The Bas-Rhin and the North complete this ranking

In eighth place, motorists passing between Colmar and Strasbourg were flashed 79,000 times by the automatic device located in Geispolsheim (Bas-Rhin).

Finally, the radar located on the A25 at the entrance to Lille from Dunkirk (North) closes this ranking, with all the same 74,000 flashes in 2020.

-To carry out this classification, the Onsir takes into account the number of infringement messages (MIF) issued, i.e. the number of photos taken by the device, even if these do not necessarily lead to a ticket due to poor image quality or an unusable photo.
