Motorists are being warned that new covert mobile speed cameras are now operating across New South Wales.

From today six mobile cameras will target the state's high crash risk areas.

The speed cameras are being reintroduced as part of the state government's road toll response package, announced in March.

Roads Minister David Borger says speeding kills and if these cameras make motorists think twice about driving above the speed limit then they've done their job.

More than two hundred people were killed in speed related crashes last year.

The list of 150 locations where the mobile speed cameras will be rotated can be found on the RTA website.

Money Grabers, the RTA and the police need something else to do, People trying to slow down everywhere just creates more danger. David Borger should be arrested. I hope it fails miserably and the tax pays money goes down the drain again
