Re: Speed Cameras May Help Fund Cash-Strapped Police

Toffee, We are not allowed to have anyone in our house - other than family. Its against council rules. Does that answer your question

I see the worst of homeless people, and being a grown man. Its makes a tear in my eyes, when l see the homeless freezing. Or families that don't have any money due to budget cuts

The worst that l have ever seen is elderly proud people in queues at supermarket with no proper food in there baskets.

The driver must go to the local police station and pay a fine for dangerous parking or for causing an obstruction, as well as a fine to have the vehicle released.

This is what i never understood with clamping, if a car is "causing an obstruction" or dangerously parked how can making it so they cant be moved from that dangrous position be a suitable answer?

appoligies for the offtopicness

Same with Wheel clamps, the French put superglue in the locks even if it wasn't there car.

End result, no speed cameras in Holland, and no wheel clamps in France

Well they wouldn't glue up the locks on clamps on their own cars or else end result is a clamp that can't be got of their own car. Tbh I'm not buying this, clamps are £250 for 10, decent locks even cheaper, there's still to much profit in it for this to stop it.
