Default Camera cost

allan tracy ) gurgled happily, sounding
much like they were saying :

And as my councillor put it, when you've got residents on the bends
that have had their garden wall knocked down half a dozen times,
they're not interested in the bigger picture they just want a f**king
camera.


No, they want something doing.

And quite rightly too.

If this is a rural B-road, then it'll be NSL. 60 limit. Add in the 10%+2
ACPO guideline, and the camera won't be triggered below 67mph.

I very much doubt that's an appropriate speed if this road is as you
describe. So a camera's useless. As usual.

The root cause of the problem is poor driving standards - and cameras in
place of proper policing are exacerbating that.
