Speed camera on Pacific Coast Highway at Decker Road
The City of Malibu has not published a posted speed limit for this location, and limits vary along PCH. That means we can tell you the rule — a citation starts at 11 mph over whatever is posted — but not the exact speed on this street. Check the posted signs.
What this camera means for you
This is one of 5 speed safety systems Malibu Public Works is deploying under California SB 1297. It photographs the rear licence plate of vehicles travelling 11 mph or more over the posted limit — on this street, that means mph or above.
Citations are civil penalties, not moving violations. They do not add points to your driving record and are not reported to your insurer as a moving violation. Fines start at $50, and low-income drivers can request reductions or payment plans.
When cameras are first activated on a street, California SB 1297 requires a 60-day warning period during which only warnings are issued.
Location
The City of Malibu has named this intersection but not published an exact camera position — its Impact Report says final placement is subject to additional field observations. The marker shows the named intersection (located via OpenStreetMap), not a verified camera location. See the approximate position on the map.
Malibu Public Works lists this location as Pacific Coast Highway at Decker Road.
Named intersection (approximate): 34.04147, -118.89441
