Drivers in Western Australia will be hit with fines from next month if they are caught by the state’s new safety cameras.

After a seven-month introductory period, the new cameras will use artificial intelligence to detect drivers speeding, using a mobile phone and wearing a seatbelt incorrectly.

During the caution period, more than 60,000 notices were issued for more than 275,000 offences.

From October 8, drivers will receive fines for breaking the road rules.

Six mobile safety cameras, including trailer and fixed freeway cameras, were introduced in the state in late January to detect multiple offences simultaneously.

The government also upgraded fixed cameras at two sites on the Kwinana Freeway as part of the rollout.

The new safety cameras will complement the existing fleet of automated speed cameras operated by the WA Police Force.

According to the WA government, the safety camera program is funded through the Road Trauma Trust Account.

This will see 100 per cent of safety camera infringement revenue allocated to projects and programs which reduce injuries and deaths on the state’s roads.

Last year, Western Australia saw its deadliest road toll in almost a decade with more than 180 road deaths.
