Fall in Number of Speed Camera Fines
For too long now Government policy has been over-zealous use of speed cameras, catching many drivers whose speed had inadvertantly slipped above the limit because their concentration was given to prevailing traffic conditions as opposed to the accuracy of their compliance with the speed limit. We have no problem with drivers who are travelling at a reckless speed being caught by a speed camera and fined, but we do object to so many careful drivers finding themselves criminalised through a minor infringement. We should return to proper traffic policing, catching the true criminals, those who drive recklessly and irresponsibly, showing no thought for anybody else on the road. These are the drivers we want to see targeted, and it looks like the tide is beginning to turn in our favour. Click on the link below to read The Times article on this subject:
