Hmmmmmm,


From the NYPD in the link in this thread.

"North Yorkshire Police launched its first safety camera van in 2011 and their use is cost-neutral, meaning the revenue they generate is about the same as the running costs."

This from July 2018 from the PCC in the York press

"Accounts for 2017/18 have revealed that road safety cameras brought in millions of pounds LESS than the force and the Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) expected.

and from the same article

"The Chief Constable’s draft statement of accounts said: “The recharges made for speed awareness courses were responsible for the greatest single underachievement of income. The recharges generated £2.1 million less income than was forecast."

I'm sure it's all about keeping people and their property saferolleyes

Wingo.
