More speed camera insanity from North Wales police

Filed under: speed camera & enforcements — admin @ 12:26 am

As if things had not got bad enough for the motorist in North Wales, on the 31st of March the BBC reported that North Wales police are now resorting to hiding speed camers inside horse boxes on rural roads. The article makes reference to the chief constables well documented obsession with speeding motorists, apparantly his top priority over and above all other crimes! As is so often the case with online news articles about speed cameras the limited number of comment slots are rapidly filled up by the usual crew of ill informed anti car / speed group members who campaign endlessly for lower speeds and fewer cars.

It would seem North Wales police are continuing to hammer the law abiding citizens with speeding convictions for minor infringments of speed limits and ignore, once again, all other aspects of road safety. With such strong evidence to suggest that speeding is not the cause of most fatal road accidents surely it’s time to start enforcing the actual causes of accidents. Instead it seems they are intent on dreaming up new and inventive ways to hide speed cameras from a drivers view.
