So, are you in favour of speed cameras? Or not?



Really? Do you have a link to that information? Here is a link to a study that shows "a 51% reduction in injurious crashes":

An independent study from a group in Wales.
most dont know the national speed limit now changinging wont increase that number

60 roads are perfectly safe now if you drive with in the limits forthe conditions changing the limit wont change that

as to cameras they increase problems not reduce them ( i can play quot the study all day )

as the one study there shows the best way to ( only way ) improve safty is to put more officers in cars on the road in risk areas
