Believe me - that was me holding back 
Doing their job perhaps, but there are more worthy causes than picking on motorists . . . .
That's not down to them, that's down to the Chief constable, councils and the government, the latter two being elected by people just like yourself who dictate what areas are of most concern to them. Doing their job perhaps, but there are more worthy causes than picking on motorists . . . .If the majority feel then same as you and voice their concerns, then the police will target these more important issues.
But the voter doesn't get a say in these things. Never has, never will. It's all just easy target stuff.
And there are loads more than just me with that opinion so I am convinced I not just an isolated weirdo. In fact it is my opinion that given motoring offences are still technically a 'crime', they are solved there and then by means of conviction/fine. As a consequence it is a 'crime' solved thus massaging crime resolution stats to make them look better than they really are.
It's hard work being this cynical
. In the meantime I still regard it as my civic duty to inform fellow motorists of speed traps/pig patrols, and still reserve my right to have utterly no respect for them.

To the best of my knowledge they're not slaves. They choose to do the job and they do so without fear of death, so they shoulder some of the responsibility for their actions.If the majority feel then same as you and voice their concerns, then the police will target these more important issues.
They take the money every month so they take everything that comes with it, including the fact they willingly participate in a moronic means of extracting cash from the populace under the guise of safety. Ergo, they're w
kers. As for democracy in law, I think you're confused how it works. It's not majority rules and we don't get equal votes. If we did we'd have no speed cameras, and pedophiles would be hung, which is evidently not the case. And regarding voting for councils and governments that want to scrap speed cameras, show me one.

Black 5 door Vauxhall Astra, SF62 CAV
Lights on the top of the bonnet, on the grille and below the number plate. They were getting some refreshments from the Greggs on Paisley Road West.
This one was floating around Parkhead today - nothing obvious at the back, but the front looked like they had ramraided Maplin... so many lights! Lights on the top of the bonnet, on the grille and below the number plate. They were getting some refreshments from the Greggs on Paisley Road West.

Last night, marked brand new 5 series hiding at junction 1 M77 on ramp towards Ayr, so wouldn't see it as you drive along the M77, very sneaky. Didn't get the reg was heading towards Glasgow and only just spotted it
