Safe Speed Forums

On Friday morning, they had a "debate" on Speed Cameras & Speed Awareness courses, and I found it one of the most awful pieces of journalism yet.

What complete and utter bias. They had one chap stating his case that perhaps Speed Cameras don't work, and he was effectively cut off.

Paul, any chance of giving a repost?

I could happily spend eternity punching that man in the face.

It's difficult - I'm dashing about getting ready to go down south for 2.5 weeks on Safe Speed business - and there's a lot of getting ready to do.

A radio phone-in show is hardly journalism ! Just like the John Gaunt show it is an opinion casting forum; you ring in to talk to a dogmatic and opinionated broadcaster who has overall power over how much you say with the fader knobs and 'disconnect' switch.
You hear these shows every day and they are as biased as the guy behind the mike wants them to be.
