    40% lower than mid-nineties. All down to speed cameras I reckon (wicked)

    Absolutely; thats why they'll be sticking loads more up on nearly every road possible. As we all know speed cameras are great at catching drunk drivers, drug drivers and dangerous drivers. I'm all for them (furious)

    they should replace them with anpr cameras

    then they will actually catch people in stolen cars, cars without tax or m.o.t. etc whatever speed they drive at

    Is more likely to do with congestion than speed cameras.

    According to the AA it's the credit crunch.

    Fewer sales reps bombing around and that.

    RE: its down to safety systems on cars & public information ads, not speed cameras

    ppl know where most of them are and slow down for the camera and then speed up again once past

    I think it's blatantly obvious that they're just hiding the bodies somewhere.
