Cameras On The M4

[Ravstar]

I think a combination of more policing on the roads (who would be better at spotting a rubbish driver than a camera would!) and stricter standards for the driving test (as well as retesting) is the way forward. Cameras are principally there to generate revenue, and thats what they are best at.

I agree with putting the police cars back on the roads,the cameras are only any good for making money...

Anyone coming along to the Castle Combe Action Day this Saturday,beware the police are always out in force with the speed guns around the area

Im surprized there not practicing on the cars on track

They shape of things to come

more police - yes.

on the road - no.

We need more coppers - but we need to stop seeing motorists as an easy win.

So - more coppers, and those coppers on the streets, dealing with the scum who rule them at the moment

Ah but thats a very good location to have a speed camera IMHO. The speed limits are often there to protect the poor sods working behind a couple of plastic cones. If they've managed to rake in 2/4 of a mil £ then that just goes to show how daft the one caught were for putting the guys working there in such danger.

If there's no guys working, the speed limit is then for the drivers protection (crash barrier repairs etc)...

Any one caught speeding in road works deserves the fine and points IMHO!
