Depends where it was really...

If the speed police were serious they would use speed bumps.

Fair game really.
I am sure I have read recently that they are starting to put cameras to monitor the gatsos on great big poles.......

I don't condone it, as it is criminal damage; despite my views on scameras

I can see both sides of the argument

If the police actually positioned the cameras more legitamately then I think there would be less resentment about cameras in general, so I think they've made a rod for their own backs (in my opinion)

Burn em... I say, all of them.

The point is that I have NEVER seen one outside a school or in a residential area. It seems it is more important to protect the people who fix our motorways.... I wonder if that has something to do with the high volume cars driving past and thus a huge revenue opportunity.

Its pretty clear that scameras are not reducing fatalities, but are the reason for the reduced Police presence on our roads...

BUUUUUURN BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURN!






I agree with Alex, if they placed them more honestly people wouldn't hate them as much. I would condone them being destroyed if they're blatant money-spinners, which most of them are
