Safe Speed Forums

Well I was thinking the same in as much that it suggests you contest it at your peril for if you lose, (which may not always be fair), you can expect to be taken to the cleaners in effect. This is likely to put people off even if they have a good case I would have thought. Not a problem to the rich but bad news for the likes of me.

Justice often comes at a price it seems...

You will be branded a threat to society by going over a speed limit where it is safe to do so, and suffer the consequences of your actions in a way criminals do not, more so than someone who is a real threat to our society.

There must be thousands if not millions of drivers who are done in the name of 'Road Safety' who have never had a claim against them in all their driving lives but the speed camera merchants do not give a monkeys about this relevant fact. Their aim is to win each and every case thats brought before them if anyone has the audacity to challenge them. If a driver wants to see the video 'clip' of their capture on camera he/she has to pay £ 10 for this priviledge in the name of 'unneccessary retrieval' . Unnecessary for who ?? Many motor engineers & I suppose Jimmy Carr's mechanic would be one of those who would say that the cars of old on which the speed limits were based would not hold a candle to these modern cars many of which can stop on a sixpence nevermind a threppeny bit as we used to say. Was the speed camera in a position which most are - to make money rather than promote and help Road Safety. Usually especially here in Notts they are in favourite positions to nick as many motorists as is humanly possible. Several of those places the camera vans park on the pavement where the customers would have to drive over a 4 foot concrete wall to hit any pedestrian!!!! The name of the game is MONEY but those extorting it have no qualms whatsoever in plying their trade.

TWO MILLION per year done by speed cameras.....ALL dangerous psycopaths (to the speed kills brigade)....Strange that there's not that many deaths then, isn't it? (or maybe speed DOESN'T kill...on its own)
