I'm provisionally booked to participate in a studio discussion regard SPECS on the A77 and speed cameras in general this evening at 11pm. (Provisional to allow for 'big news' that might come along.)

Newsnight (Scotland) is confirmed. I'm on between 11pm and 11:20. I'm up against Kevin Clinton from RoSPA. It's on BBC 2 Scotland, which I'm sure can be picked up on Sky. I'll also rebroadcast BBC2 audio on Safe Speed radio.

Amazing how the SCP couldn't find anyone to do the interview :rolleyes:

At least the newsnight woman put the point that speeding was only the 7th biggest cause of accidents and that 89% of accidents weren't caused by speeding according to dft's own figures.

I also notice the mention of junction improvements which of course the scams will claim as a victory for their stupid cameras. Do you know how many of those deaths are related to overtaking HGVs stuck at 40 if the road is a single carriageway? If it is a dual then I have no idea how people are killing themselves unless there is a high concentration of foreign lorries.
