SINGAPORE: The Traffic Police (TP) will void demerit points and refund any fines paid for 1,523 speeding tickets that were erroneously issued between Oct 30 and Dec 8, 2025.

This comes after a technical error in three speed enforcement cameras on the KPE was discovered, the police and Land Transport Authority (LTA) said in a joint statement on Thursday (Feb 5).

The speed limit for the three cameras was wrongly set at 70kmh instead of the actual limit of 80kmh.

TP had discovered the error during a regular audit conducted in mid-December 2025.

It added that the incorrect speed limit setting was made by LTA’s contractor during a hardware replacement on Oct 30.

Affected motorists do not need to take any action, the statement said, adding that TP will notify them. Those who have already paid their fines will receive refunds through PayNow or bank transfer.

All speed cameras along the KPE managed by LTA and all speed cameras islandwide have been checked as a precautionary measure, the authorities added.

LTA and TP apologised for the inconvenience caused, adding that they “take a serious view of this matter and are strengthening our checks and controls to prevent similar occurrences”. - The Straits Times/ANN
