The new tutors 3.0 are positioned on 26 motorway sections: where you find them, what they detect (not only the average speed, but also other imprudencies) and that sanctions apply.
Italian highways have a New speed control system (and not only): Tutor 3.0. This technological update, the result of the collaboration between Autostrade per l’Italia (Aspi) and the State Police, was employed on 26 motorway sections national, bringing monitoring to the network to 178 for a total of 1,800 kilometers of coverage.
The goal is to increase road safety, reducing the number of accidents caused by speeding. The latest available data date back to 2023 (the 2024 are still being developed) and indicate 3,039 deaths and almost 225,000 injured in 166,525 accidents, stable values compared to the detection of the previous year (3,159 deaths, 223,475 wounded and 165,889 accidents).
What they detect and how. How can the new tool help to improve this situation? First of all it should be remembered that, unlike the traditional speed cameras, which measure the instantaneous speed of a vehicle, the tutors calculate the average speed on a certain stretch of road, making it more difficult to evade controls. At the entrance of a supervised route, the new appliance is able to detect the category of each vehicle in transit and activate high definition digital cameras, which take a photo and record the passage time. The same process is repeated at the end of the stretch. The central system compares the data of the two portals, calculates the travel time and, consequently, the average speed.
At this point, those who have respected the speed limits are excluded from the control, while Those who have passed them are automatically reported for the sanction, given that it is the system itself that consults the archives of the engine and car rental To identify the owner and the driver of the vehicle.
Where they are. Another improvement made by version 3.0 is based on advanced technology that triangulates the data collected by the camera sensors and sends them to a central brain. The new tutors, in fact, are able to monitor other types of Dangerous behaviors compared to the simple overcoming of the limits, for example a change of sudden lane, a risky overtaking of a truck and even a driver who proceeds in the wrong direction.
The 26 new routes covered by Tutor 3.0 are distributed on six motorways: seven are on the Milan-Napoli A1, five on the A27 Mestre-Belluno and on the A9 Lainate-Tomo-Chiasso (four of which between Chiusi and Monte San Savino), four on the A14 Bologna-Taranto (between Pesaro and Rimini Sud) and another five on the A11 Florence-Pisa Nord (between Montecatini and Prato Est). THE’full list Tutors subject to tutors is available on the State Police website.
