Another reason to hate cameras?

Here's a question ... what's the first thing you do if a speed camera flashes near you ... I reckon it's to look down at the speedo. Now, even if you're not the one speeding and it was meant for somebody else, all of a sudden you will find yourself riding around in what could be heavy traffic and EVERYONE around you will be looking down at the speedo to check their speed, not looking where they're going. Some drivers will automatically hit the brakes at the same time, which adds to the fun. So much for road safety.

Re: Another reason to hate cameras?

Bloody cams are no more than money boxes for the government.
How hard would it be to adapt these cameras to catch untaxed and uninsured vehicles/drivers/owners (the real criminals)?

Ahhh but those people are the scrotes who are too much trouble to pursue! And then they'd only get another ban which they wouldn't observe and another fine that they wouldn't pay. Too much hard work! We're a much easier lot to get money out of. You can see the sense in it.
