| I'd like to know which camera sceptics have not been pinged? Come on, own up. Not me. Full, clean licence, and intend to keep it that way. Surely you all have points on your licences, if cameras are causing so many accidents that result in death that never did before! Or are you saying that some dr... |

| They show the anual average KSI figures for a given site for the 3 years prior to installing a camera. Now that would suggest they take the KSI figures for each year, add them up and divide by 3.

| Living in London I'm more than aware of the large number of tickets that are issued illegally.

| Can you clear something up for me? In the above article you appear to contradict yourself vis-a-vis: "Firstly, it is well known that faster roads are safer (TRL511 confirms this)." "TRL323 says no such thing. TRL421 and TRL511 are flawed beyond redemption." If TRL511 is flawed beyond redemption then... |
