AA Ireland may follow the example of AA UK and publish the location of fixed speed cameras in its road atlas. Although there are no definite plans to do so "at the moment", AA Ireland said: "Perhaps we will after we see how it works in the UK."
Conor Faughnan of AA Ireland said: "Fixed speed cameras are not hidden or put there to catch motorists out. They are signposted for motorists on the roads they are located, unlike mobile speed cameras.
"There is a misconception in Ireland that fixed speed cameras are there to catch people. Their primary purpose is to get people to slow down in dangerous driving spots."
Mr Faughnan said the problem with fixed speed cameras in Ireland is that motorists don't take them seriously when they do approach them.
"I think there are 20 fixed speed cameras in Ireland. But only two or three of them at any given time will be actually recording. So many people don't really believe they will get caught for speeding."
Road-safety campaigners in Britain have criticised the move by AA UK, saying it will help motorists who want to break the law escape detention.
However, the Irish National Safety Council (NSC) said it would not have a problem if AA Ireland print the location of fixed speed cameras in their road atlas.
"There is no great secret about where these speed cameras are located. They have been put in accident-prone areas to stop people speeding," said Brian Farrell of the NSC.
