Every Awas Speed Camera Locations Complete List 2025

---

Having updated its Automated Enforcement System (AES) since October 2023, One of the Open System of Automated Awareness Safety System (AWAS) Speed Camera has positioned itself as the premium frontrunner of automated enforcement of traffic rules in Malaysia. Road safety concerns, improving compliance of speed limits and in the reduction of traffic collisions have merited the installation of the AWAS, which utilizes the sophisticated Automated Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) technology as well as point-to-point speed detection. From 2025, the AWAS Speed Camera system integrates ANPR with the monitoring of around major urban areas as well as highways and crammed regions including accident prone stretches, toll, and rush areas. The system not only marks the records of speed but is also able in the future to detect other traffic discrepancies including, at red lights and overloaded vehicles with High Speed Weigh in Motion (HS-WIM).
In this document, explain how Malaysia AWAS speed camera works, its kilometer captures, and integration with other types of vehicles like lorries. Automated and meticulous integration is missing so this works as a filler. The rest of the document covers from reliable and update posts the location of AWAS speed cameras for the year 2025 so that drivers can be aware and prepare for safety.
How AWAS Speed Camera Works: Explained In Detail Unlike its predecessor, AES, AWAS has been crafted to be more sophisticated, rectifying some of the loopholes that traditional enforcement structures have, while using AI and sophisticated sensors to monitor with precision and protection from tampering. It is best understood with a systematic approach:
Technological and Compositional Fundamentals Sensors and Detection Mechanisms: AWAS has in-situ sensors such as inductive loops or piezos that pair with radars or lidars to detect the speed of a moving vehicle. These sensors gauge a vehicle’s velocity by timing how fast it crosses a pre-measured distance. For example, if embedded loops can detect a vehicle crossing two segments of a roadway at a speed greater than the threshold (say, a highway with a limit of 110 km/h), it will activate the enforcement mechanism. More advanced systems of AWAS, such as Ekin Spotter cameras, can monitor in 360 degrees and detect vehicles moving at 320 km/h, and other systems, AWAS in particular, can pinpoint objects virtually. Automated Number Plate Recognition (ANPR): AWAS uses real-time monitoring of vehicles to provide automatic identification through the use of high-speed cameras, and data is protected through a central system so that it can’t be manipulated. Offenders are pinpointed, even in the dark, or ommit a low-light setting. Point-to-point Monitoring Cameras: designed to ʻAWASʼ systems surpass the capability of spot-check AES cameras which require a measure of instantaneous speed and a single location. For a selected portion of certain highways (like the KL-Karak Expressway and certain North-South Expressway segments) cassette recorders at the entry and exit points capture video of the vehicle’s number plate and time. The system’s speed computation ability determines the average speed sakara the available stretch. It flags a violation if a speed limit of 30 minutes (in terms of the duration of a journey) is crossed in 20 minutes. This discourages slow driving in the vicinity of cameras. Capture and Process Violations: Whenever speeding is detected (even a 10 km speed is crossed and tolerated) or a red light is crossed with a 0.01 second tolerance level, the AI captures a sequence of images and is able to generate the State Shift Dipol that includes time and date, location and the offence type. The Dipol is a watermark type attachment. The Road Transport Department (JPJ) sends the information to the MySikap database to identify the vehicle owner. After human verification, the documents with the summons are sent by registered post. The Kejara system’s AWAS works adds to the points of the license for the offence and accumulative points over a certain limit can result in suspension of the license. AWAS does much more than just speeding violations. It also tracks red light violations as well as illegal U-turns and in the future, capturing HS-WIM. The cameras are designed to look like black poles and in order to promote compliance, signs are placed well in front of the area of monitoring. This system has proven effective in reducing accidents, with strategic placements in high-risk areas. For the latest updates, drivers can check the official JPJ website or use apps like Waze for real-time alerts, though these may not always reflect new installations.
Question: If I’m Behind a Lorry, How Does It Detect My Car? One of the worries of drivers is whether AWAS can recognize smaller vehicles, like cars, when they are sitting behind larger vehicles like lorries or trucks. This is especially true of busy highways, which are notorious for visibility impairment. Let’s put technology away for a second and examine the things for what they are:
Detection In Spot-Speed Mode (Like AES): Independence from the Sensor: Just like the AES, AWAS primarily uses inductive loops or piezos worn to the pavement. These sensors unmistakably sense the piece of metallic mass of every vehicle as long as the vehicle passes over the sensors, irrespective of the vehicle preceding it. When a lorry crosses the loops, it is tagged differently than the lorry sitting in front. Speed of vehicles is estimated from the time difference in between activations of the loops. If a vehicle is detected to be over the speed limit, a speed trap can be activated. Radar/Lidar Limitations and Mitigations: Whenever a lorry comes in between a lorry and the receiver in a vehicle like position, the system resets. Most AWAS would be lorry fitted with back-aiming or 360-degree tracking (e.g. Ekin Spotter models). This particularly resolves the system occlusion dilemma. Also, the vehicles, in the bounding boxes, are identified by the system via automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) irrespective of the bounding boxes being correct or not when the vehicles are in the detection area. Practical Scenarios: On multi lane roads where you drive directly behind a lorry and stay in the same lane, the loops will still register the car’s presence and speed in her own through independent tests. Proof of the system’s calibration in performing the reveals the system’s ability to focus on the queue rather than visual obstruction to examine per vehicle data alone. However, If the lorry is speeding and you are keeping the same speed, both will still get flagged, but your violation will be calculated separately. Detection in Point to Point Mode Average Speed Focus: In the case of AWAS and with certain point to point setups, it is the case that detection does not rely on continuous monitoring of the speed or, as the name refers, ‘Average Speed Focus’. As long as your license plate is readable at the entry and exit cameras, which are typically overhead or on the side for better angles, the system calculates your average speed over the distance. If you happen to be behind a lorry at a lorry at a checkpoint, it doesn’t matter, because the violation is based on the timestamps, not instantaneous visibility. Edge Cases and Reliability: There is an obstruction at the camera point (e.g., a lorry blocking your plate) that is probably less due to the coverage and AI enhancements that process multiple frames. If a plate is not captured, then that specific vehicle and all other detected frames, no data is recorded. This means no false positives, but perhaps missed detections in extreme cases. JPJ puts it that the system is untampered, unbiased accurate with real-time encryption in fairness.” Overall, AWAS is strong to common covering as lorries with its sensor diversity and ANPR focus, but will other measures as safe distance and speed regardless, as the system encourages the safe driving behavior above the evasion efforts.”
Question: If I Skip a Camera, Will the 1st and 3rd Camera Still Calculate the Distance & Time Travelled? In AWAS point-to-point systems, a relevant issue is whether, after a driver passes the first camera and does not get registered on the intermediate (2nd) camera because of a lane change, getting off and back onto the highway, or etc., the first and the third cameras can still compute distance and time travelled to derive average speed. Here is the explanation.
How Point to Point Systems Work? Mechanism: AWAS point-to-point cameras on the highway (like on the KL-Karak Expressway or North-South Expressway Segments) compute average speed when the system records a vehicle’s license plate and the time at two geo-fenced points (e.g., entry and exit). They then divide the distance to the points and the time taken to figure out whether the driver committed a violation (e.g., speed limit is exceeded to 110 km/h). Hence, a 50 km segment of the road should ideally take 27 minutes or more to travel at 110 km/h. If it is completed in less time, then a violation on the speed limit is triggered. Intermediate cameras serve a purpose in assisting the lane. They include (but are not limited to) a second camera in the intermediate lane or between the first and third) and for enhancing the overall monitoring system. They serve to ensure compliance across segments and serve as backup points. Although, in the end, the main function is to assist in the evaluation and validation of compliance as normally computed from the designated points only. What Happens if You Skip a Camera? Direct Calculation Between First and Third Cameras: If there is a lane change, lane exit, or a camera is inoperative, and in the above example if you capture the entry point camera and the exit point camera but miss one of the cameras in between (intermediate points) for example due to a lane change, the system is still able to compute your average speed as long as your unique number plate is captured at both the first and the third points. The AWAS system will ‘match’ the plate and the timestamp at both points and compute the distance and time travelled between the frames from the first and the third cameras. 30 minutes ago, one of the users asked a question in the comments about the speed limit in Kuwait (assuming this is the same person), for example, if the distance between the first and the third cameras is set to 50 km, and the user manages to complete the distance in 20 minutes, the system will flag the user for overspeeding. 150 km/h average speed. Skips Due To Exits or Re-Entries: The system still records your plate as you exit the highway and re-enter the highway between the first and third cameras. The system still records based on the time that’s captured. If you exit and re-enter at a point not monitored by AWAS, the system captures a pair of entries and exits but no violation is issued since the entry exit pair is incomplete. Edge Cases and Considerations Camera Malfunctions and Blockages: Assuming an intermediate camera is unable to receive a clear image of your plate because of obstructions, weather, and other technical problems, as long as the first and third cameras also record your plate, it is possible to compute your average speed. AWAS systems are designed with redundancy to maintain a given level of reliability. Attempted Evasion: Intentionally avoiding cameras by exiting and reentering controlled zones is not guaranteed to be successful, as deadly or dangerous highways now sometimes have AWAS CCTVs located at the toll booths or re-entry cameras. In addition, the JPJ may compare toll (Touch ‘n Go, RFID) payment data to ascertain suspicious behavior patterns, although this is not an automatic function of the AWAS. Equity and Accuracy: The system is set up in such a way as to avoid false accusations or misleading accusations as much as possible. If they do not capture your plate at either ends of the specified segment, no violation is marked. Drivers may appeal in front of the JPJ if the alleged offenses seem unreasonable or the evidence provided is not proportional to the means of enforcement, such as GPS data or toll receipts. Practical Advice To reduce the chances of getting a fine, keep a constant speed within the speed limit for the whole distance that you are monitored. Remember that the average speed is what the point-to-point systems take into consideration; therefore speeding over the limit after one camera, and then going below the limit before the next one, will not be beneficial if the overall timing is too low. Look out for AWAS signs (usually 1-5 km before the cameras) and track new installations via JPJ or Waze apps.
