I do agree that there are more important things the police could be spending millions on now, however.

I'm sure that the thousands of motorists who have been 'done' for speeding do not consider themselves 'maniacs'.
My wife got caught out doing 33 mph in a 30 mile an hour zone. Does that constitute the driving of a 'maniac'?. It's dangerous driving rather than speeding we should be concentrating on.
The police have got their priorities out of synch with public opinion and this needs to be rectified.
