“There are no fixed speed cameras in Avon & Somerset. Even the ones you can see aren't in use.

“Speed cameras (even mobile ones) need a reasonably straight piece of road with unobstructed visibility in order to work. That means they are usually put on safe sections of road.”

“Something needs to be done a there have been three accidents in the same location over the past 10 days!”

“everything these days is money, money, money saving
the'd rather save money than lives”

“Dropping the speed limit further is not going to help since there are already a significant proportion of drivers ignoring the limit now; the limit will just be more widely flouted and the small number of drivers who do tend to crash will still go far too fast for the road.

The road is not up to the standard one would expect of a road linking a motorway to a major town in that area - but fixing it will involve substantial and expensive engineering.”

“WHY do we need speed traps/cameras? For the idiots that 'think' they are 'drivers'!
THE HIGHER THE SPEED = THE HARDER THE STOP!
If your dumb enough not to drive according to the road conditions and signing then DON'T ******* DRIVE!”

“Yes, very good. However, you may think differently if you are struck by the aforementioned driver while you are driving (carefully and within the speed limit) on your way home from work one day.

Luckily I wasn't hurt but my vehicle has been written off. What do you suggest is done about it?!”

“oh and by the way, 'your' meaning 'you are' would have an apostrophe e on the end, ie if 'you're' dumb enough ;0)”

“""There are no fixed speed cameras in Avon & Somerset. Even the ones you can see aren't in use."

Well, either there are or there are not, do make up you mind please.”

“Is pedantry a speciality of yours? Read the header:

"There are cameras further down on the long, straight, clear stretch where there are no houses or pavements..."

Then my response:

"Even the ones you can see aren't in use."”

“The casings are still in place but there are no cameras within them.

The answer is better driver training, but it's easier to blame everything else under the sun first.”
