Ten mobile speed camera trailers across New Zealand have faced 18 incidents of vandalism since their rollout last September — from graffiti to slashed tires — sparking frustration from the Transport Agency, which calls it a waste and a safety risk. Most damage occurred in Manawatū-Whanganui, Waikato, and Canterbury, though cases also appeared in Auckland and Southland. While these rugged units are built to withstand abuse and none have been permanently disabled, the agency warns that tampering is a crime and will be reported. Despite past resistance to new enforcement tech — like fixed cameras — these trailers remain vital, especially in dynamic zones where stationary cameras can’t operate. Repair costs are covered by the service provider, keeping the system running.
