Engineered RTTM?

1) plant hedge on bend to obscure view and make road more dangerous.
2) accidents go up by 50%
3) Install speed camera
4) cut hedge down
5) accidents go down by 40%
6) claim 40% accident reduction due to camera


Your paranoia knows no bounds.

I don't know. We know how deceptive the SCPs are when it comes to interpreting statistics (that’s beyond question), so I wouldn't put point 1 past them, be it an accidental or deliberate act.
