The new point-to-point camera system on the Forrest Highway has caught 40 drivers a day speeding between Lake Clifton and Binningup.
Point-to-point cameras covering a 30km stretch of the Forrest Highway went live on September 6 following a three month trial.
According to Seven West Media, 326 speeding drivers were recorded in the first week of operation with one motorist clocked at one point hurtling down the highway at 166km/h.
The fastest average speed between the two camera points by a driver was 159km/h.
Those drivers will now be facing a fine of $1200 and seven demerit points.
Police Minister Michelle Roberts told Seven West Media it’s rather disappointing that after an extensive media campaign to give people ample warning about these cameras, 40 people a day have been caught speeding.
"I suspect as infringements begin arriving in letterboxes, people will learn you can’t just slow down for the cameras at either end, you need to drive under the speed limit at all times.
“It is an undeniable fact that speed is a significant factor in road fatalities, so can I just say to drivers out there for your own sake, for the sake of your families and the sake of other road users, please slow down.”
