Nice site that is......nah im kidding meself.
"Notice the high visibility markings" it proclaims on the side of the Sharan.
Er no...bit of red and a bit of high vis black!
What a waste of time these folks are.
Dont they realise that more people die each year in "trouser related" incidents?
"Now lets switch live to the trouser cam.....snake anyone?"
Total bollox!

I imagine that cameras are put where most people can be caught?
There are strict criteria where cameras can be placed, and that isn’t one of the criteria!
- FIXED CAMERAS are placed where there have been at least fourcrashes involving death or serious injury and/or at least eight injury crashes in the past three years where speed was a main cause.
So that explains the ones they put up on unopened roads?
Edited to add : filled in the form.
I was impressed that they used the site for honest discussion, instead of using it to brainwash you.
[dazed look] I like speed cameras. I have seen the error of my ways...[/dazed look]

"Is this not another example of "bashing" the motorist?
On the contrary this will be of benefit to all people, including motorists. Cameras have already shown they save lives - more effective, targeted use of cameras will save even more lives, many of which will be motorists. The only motorists who will suffer are those who break the law by speeding"

Wow. I feel that this is a real benefit to me. They are going to relieve me of my evil nasty drivers license.
Thanks Safety Cameras, I have now seen the light.

I should think 100% of all crashes are speed related. Doesn't something have to be moving for a crash to happen?? I wish the anti-speed lobby would stop citing stats without proving a thing...
Sorry - pedantic mode off for the day now!!

I got a reply back - it was just bland spin, stating that for the first half year casualty figures are looking good, but only after 3 years will the results be known.
(I had to paraphrase that due to legalese attached to the mail)
None of my points were acknowleged or responded to, but then I expected no different.
If enough of us respond to this, at least they will have some awareness that there isn't complete acceptance of their message.
