The country’s 10 mobile speed camera trailers have been vandalised at least 18 times since they were rolled out last September, according to new reports.
Data shows that these cameras were graffitied 11 times, the trailers have been damaged at least six times - and there's been one incident of the tyres on a camera trailer getting slashed.
Head of Driving Regulation at NZTA, Chris Rodley, says these camera trailers are deployed to make the roads safer and they've got an important job to do.
"It is a real nuisance having the vandalism, but it's not affecting the deployment schedules too much. They're usually out for a day or two."
