The state government will roll out 35 new fixed cameras, two point-to-point networks and tougher distracted-driving and seatbelt enforcement as part of its Road Safety Action Plan.
The state government said Victorians are making smarter and safer choices on the roads, but still too many are putting lives on the line.
New road safety camera statistics for April to June 2025 show infringements dropped by 11 per cent, with 322,762 offences recorded, according to the state government.
The state government said speeding remains the biggest risk, with more than 251,000 offences detected in just three months and red‑light offences rose slightly compared to last year – driven by new red‑light cameras switching on at high‑risk intersections across Victoria.
“Most Victorians are doing the right thing – but too many people are still speeding, running red lights or driving distracted and one reckless decision is all it takes for a tragedy,” Police Minister Anthony Carbines said.
“We’ll keep investing in the technology and enforcement that protects lives because every Victorian deserves to get home safely.”
The state government said across the full financial year, more than 1.1 million infringements were issued – a 22 per cent decrease from the previous year.
Police remain out on the roads to catch those doing the wrong thing and anyone getting complacent.
The state government said every dollar raised from road safety cameras goes straight to the Better Roads Victoria Trust – funding road resurfacing, bridge strengthening and other upgrades.
