Speed Alert LA

Hear about LA speed cameras before you reach them

Los Angeles turns on its first speed cameras on October 26, 2026. Speed Alert LA gives you a short spoken heads-up before each camera zone on your road, so you can check the posted limit without taking your eyes off the road — while you keep using Apple Maps, Google Maps or Waze.

Coming soon to the App Store for iPhone.

How it works

Tap Start Drive, then just drive

  1. Tap Start Drive. Monitoring runs only during a drive you start, and keeps working with your iPhone locked.
  2. Hear the heads-up. “Speed camera zone ahead. Speed limit 35 miles per hour.” It plays through your iPhone or your car speakers.
  3. Tap End Drive. Location stops the moment you finish.

The posted speed limit is the law

Speed Alert LA is a reminder, not permission. Camera locations, speed limits and activation dates can change; always follow posted signs. Official program information: LADOT Speed Safety System.
