I think every junction should have red light cameras. Too many motorcyclists die/injured because of people jumping the lights! Problem being is cameras are being placed to raise cash and not to reduce accidents. In certain places they have worked in reducing accidents, but in the places they have not they are never removed.
As for the Specs down the M3 and M4 its fine if someone is working but i travel up there fairly regular and theres never anyone working just miles of crawling traffic!!!
Hey, but lets be honest, the ruling minority want us peasants off the road, so they can swan about in there Bentleys etc without any traffic in the way. Us mere plebes should only be allowed to use public transport. Shortly only the likes of MP's and the Roman Abramovich's will be able to drive in London anyway
