Hold on......

If the Gatso was a 'money making tool' as you claim (as I SAID you'd claimed....)... then how do you 'square' that with your comment about: '....or cut the speed cameras to cut money...' ? Look at what you are claiming:-

'cut the cost of something which makes us a FORTUNE by switching it OFF and L*O*S*I*N*G the fortune....'

Surely, you can see that would be BONKERS....!!!?????

Secondly, like the REST of you.... you simply don't UNDERSTAND cameras or their relationship to speed limits..... Cameras can NEVER be in the 'wrong place' (so long as they are WITHIN speed limit areas). You COULD argue that the SPEED LIMIT was in the 'wrong' place or was at the 'wrong' value but the camera only ENFORCES the existing SPEED LIMIT! No matter WHAT you think about the positioning of the camera... the speed limit applies to the WHOLE area covered by the SPEED LIMIT.... it's not for YOU or ANYONE to decide that a certain PART of the speed limited area need NOT be obeyed any more than it's acceptable for ME to claim that I should be ALLOWED to 'mug' people in 'certain streets.... becasue I don't think the law should apply THERE!'

Get that into your head..... Cameras CANNOT be in the 'wrong place'..... it's ONLY speed limts which can be!

Thirdly... YES... SPECS ('average' speed cameras) are 'better'..... but..... they cost VASTLY more money. A Gatso costs £40,000 to install but a single SPECS 'tower' costs...... £100,000...... and you CANNOT fit them in 'single units'.... two is the MINIMUM! Secondly, they can ONLY work if there is another unit covering EVERY possible 'exit' from the road on which a driver can LEAVE the 'SPEC covered road'. Taken to its logical conclusion, that would require BILLIONS of pounds of cameras to cover a medium sized TOWN! Obviously, 'my side' would LOVE to use SPECS throughout the country but we KNOW that they HAVE to be restricted to 'simple' roads becasue they are N*O*T a licence to print money!......

Finally, nobody has EVER said that more speed MUST cause more accidents. That's plain DAFT as motorways have less accidents than country roads (mile for mile) and the speeds are HIGHER on motorways...... BUT..... what we DO claim is that if you DON'T enforce speed limits RIGIDLY in certain locations, the number of accidetns AT those locations WILL increase......

As I have said many times, now..... we'll SEE if switching OFF the Gatsos DOES increase the numbers of KSIs (Kills or Serious Injuries)....

Are you a 'gambling man' who'd like to take some BETS on the outcome......? Well..... you are anyway..... you are betting that you won't be killed or lose a loved one because cameras are switched off..... I hope you win THAT bet!

Ian
