Notes
Victoria
Mobile phone seatbelt cameras went live around mid 2023. Initially,
Victoria initially had three mobile phone seat belt cameras with a total of six planned. As of June 2024 there are now nine
mobile phone seat belt cameras that can be rotated around the state.
Cameras were to be deployed at more than 200 sites across Victoria. The initial site list contained 116 locations. The latest site
list as at October 2024 now contains 255 locations. The site list may not be complete as a mobile phone was detected
in October 2024 at a location not on the list.
The penalty in 2023 was a $545 fine and 4 demerit points and will increase with indexation over time.
If a driver is taken to court the fine may escalate to $1,849 which will also increase with indexation over time.
Whilst it was initially stated that mobile phone seatbelt detection camera locations would not be published,
the Victorian government publishes a list of the locations. Here is the
list of locations
as at October 2024, sorted in suburb then street name order.
The press repeatedly reports mobile phone seat belt cameras will reduce 95 deaths a year. The press release by the Premiere's Department
stated, "Research from Monash University Accident Research Centre (MUARC) has estimated this technology has the capacity to prevent 95 casualty crashes per year."
A casualty crash is one where there's a fatality or serious injury. Based on the TAC 2023 data, the percentage of fatalies to the total
of fatalities plus serious injuries requiring hospitalisation, is around 5%.
Canberra
The first three mobile phone detection cameras rolled out in 2023. Motorists won't receive fines until October 2023 but will receive
a warning notice from mid-year. There will be three mobile units installed on Yamba Drive, Canberra Avenue and Horse Park Drive, which will be moved across other locations
for calibration purposes. There will be two fixed units installed on Hindmarsh Drive and Gungahlin Drive.
New South Wales
In 2020 it was reported NSW was expecting to roll out 45 cameras. Known cameras are reportedly on the Sydney Harbour Bridge, while other mobile phone camera locations
include Nowra, Lucas Heights, Moore Park and Prospect, possibly M4 motorway at Prospect and at Anzac Parade, Moore Park
As from the 1st of July 2024, mobile phone detection cameras will now also detect if seat belts aren't being worn or worn properly.
South Australia
In 2024 it was reported SA will roll out five fixed mobile phone seatbelt cameras at: Southern Expressway, Darlington; South Road, Torrensville; North South Motorway,
Regency Park; Port Road, Hindmarsh and Port Wakefield Road, Gepps Cross. These will be added to the map once
their existence is confirmed.
Distance to camera
Based on images for the M5 mobile phone seat belt camera, it is estimated the distance from the camera to the vehicle is around 20m.
For a portable mobile phone seat belt camera on a trailer the distance is estimated to be around 10 metres.
