9.1 Justice SystemIn Controlled Motorway schemes, the enforcement of VMSL will use the HighwaysAgency Digital Enforcement Camera System (HADECS). The digital photographs aretransmitted electronically to a Police Fixed Penalty Office (FPO), where the offendingdrivers are identified and appropriate action taken. The complete process impacts on theHighways Agency, the Police, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) and HM CourtsService. However, experience has shown that a relatively small number of offenders willhave to be processed through the Magistrates’ Courts.This has been dealt with by an agreement between the four parties (Managed MotorwayNational Enforcement Strategic Agreement, December 2009). The intention of theagreement is to ensure that enforcement of controlled motorway will have minimalimpact on the normal procedures of the Police, CPS and Courts. To maximiseefficiency, ensure consistency and minimise financial impact it is proposed to identifykey Police Forces, CPS offices and Magistrates Courts in each of the seven HighwaysAgency Regions and to process enforcement cases centrally on a regional basis.Offences captured by the HADECS system are processed with financial support fromthe Highways Agency by virtue of Section 38 of the Vehicle (Crime) Act 2001. Thisenables the Secretary of State to fund Police and others to undertake the enforcementof variable speed limits.38
9.2 EqualitiesThe Controlled Motorway scheme would not introduce any additional regulatoryrestrictions on the use of the motorway over and above those pertaining to the existinguse. As such there are no specific impacts in terms of the public sector duties towardsdisability, gender (including gender identity), race, pregnancy and maternity, religion orbelief, age, sexual orientation and discrimination in relation to marriage and civilpartnership. Furthermore, whilst the use of motorways is restricted to certain categoriesof driver, based on tested ability to operate a vehicle, there is no additional or lesserrestriction for the use of a controlled motorway and, as such, the effect in terms offurthering equality aims has been assessed as neutral.39
