I'm hearing of local councils cutting speed cameras due to budget constraints.
Local authorities pay to maintain and care for the speed cameras, the fines all go to central government.
Although the cameras raise more money that they cost the local authorities but as the local authorities are not getting the revenue they are deciding to ditch them.
Is this a good move? Is this a false economy? Do speed cameras have a positive side? Will foot patrols and mobile speed traps become more prevalent?
