Drove from Holyhead to Bristol last summer and couldn't believe the amount of speed cameras over there. I do a lot of driving and only know of three cameras in the country, none of which work ::) and one been on fire for a number of years.

It is such a shame that some people feel the need to spray paint speed cameras.....................It would be much more responsible to either................ completely pull them out of the ground .................or better still ........use dynamite. :y :y :y :y

This is one I saw in Pennistone about 3 years ago that some one tried to BBQ.

I remember driving up the A44 from Oxford towards Worcestershire and sitting in very slow moving traffic, after 45 minutes or so discovered why the traffic was so bad. A guy in a JCB was stopping at every GATSO (and there are lots of them down there) smaking the side of every single one so they pointed away from the road. Needless to say there were lots of thumbs up's a horn toots. They stayed bent for a long time afterwards too ;D

If your interested in dead speed camera's google TuffTuff Club theyre NL based but they go round blowing them up with all sorts of things
-
But looking at it from the other side of things....who pays for these too be repaired or replaced,its the tax payer.
Think im right in saying if a camera doesnt snap enough people there covered or taken down (thats the case in my area) so wouldn't it be better just too deny them the revenue in the first place. :-?

Yep... Although a very old database now. It's very useful, as a warning, but not perfect!
TBH I rarely speed now, and never knowingly/intentionally in built up areas!
Much as I hate the camera I do think that the vandalism is just adding to our taxes >:( >:(

My view is that the wrong thing is being attacked.
If people vented their feelings to the rule-makers about ridiculous speed limits/road markings a lot of the problem would go away.
The number of local roads where I can no longer overtake on my bike (550BHP/Ton) due to double-white lines, is amazing. Whole lengths of country lane where Mr Darby & Mrs Joan need to be told it's not safe to overtake in their back-firing Micra!
Sorry. Was this a 'general rant' thread? :D

A bloke was taken to court last week for speeding ,the hand held device had registered him at 173mph in his Lotus Elise in a 60 limit,he provided the court with evidence that it wasnt capable of anything remotely like that speed,but then admitted to doing something like 95mph,so they stung him pretty hard anyway.Although if he had been convicted of the original speed he was going inside.
