The GoSafe website outlines the enforcement threshold for 20mph blanket speed limits will be 10% plus 4mph, meaning drivers can travel up to 26mph before they will be prosecuted.
Commenting on the enforcement threshold, Welsh Conservative Shadow Transport Minister, Natasha Asghar MS said:
“For Labour’s Deputy Minister to continuously highlight safety as the primary reason for the blanket change, yet set the threshold for prosecution at 26mph sends a mixed message.
“This whole policy has been a disaster from start to finish, the lack of consultation, the poor advertising campaign and the public outcry leading to a petition amassing more than 150,000 signatures, all highlighting that the Labour Government simply don’t know what they’re doing.
“With the £33 million spent on the initial rollout and the potential £9 billion hit to the Welsh economy, once again Labour have created confusion and wasted Welsh taxpayers’ money.
