If anyone out there doesn't think that police speed cameras cause accidents � check this out on the BBC's website � I can't believe Norfolk police allowed this to be shown.

Just going by my own experience, it seems that the Norfolk & Lincolnshire police have more speed traps/cameras than anywhere else on earth! They seem to be every 100 yards!!!
Do thet think that people in Norfolk are worse drivers than in other counties?

You see ... having six toes does affect your driving after all !!
er no, speed cameras don't cause accidents.

People speeding then breaking sharply cause accidents.
Yes, but apply 'cause and effect', OEV.
One has to go back to the root cause.
surely the root cause has to be as stated, in this case.
The 'cause' is someone breaking the law by speeding.

If they weren't breaking the speed limit, they would have no need to brake.

It's a bit like saying we won't tackle burglars because very occasionally a burglar will take a person hostage.

or to keep on the car theme, lets not fine anyone for parking on double yellows since occasionally people get annoyed with traffic wardens and thump them.

If that traffic warden were to get thumped, is it his own fault for booking the person?
bad driving causes accidents. Bad drivers try to avoid blame by saying 'The speed camera made me do it!' Tell that to the victims.

Looks like they won't allow it!

May be Norfolk Police are monitoring postings on this site and realised how damaging this footage is and requested it be pulled.

The BBC link to this page can be found here, but is does not work!!!!!
