There are set to be a more than 15 mobile speed cameras out and about across Powys over the festive season including in several locations on the A470.

Speeding is one of the largest contributing factors to collisions on Welsh roads according to GoSafe - a partnership made up of authorities including the Welsh Government and Wales emergency services.

Not only is it dangerous but it can land you a fine and points on your licence. 

The minimum penalty for speeding is a £100 fine and three penalty points added to your licence.


Seven common speed camera myths


In certain circumstances, drivers will be eligible to attend a Driver Education Course, which will incur a cost, but you will not have penalty points added to your licence.

The GoSafe partnership aims to "make people safer on Welsh Roads by reducing casualties and saving lives".

So to keep drivers safe and reduce speeding, GoSafe has mapped the location of every single speed camera set to be active in Wales in December.
