The camera was put on this road to slow motorists down because three people a year are being injured on this stretch of road
I thought they only put up speed cameras where 3 people had actually died ??
Perhaps it's a pre-emptive measure? Stick the camera up and within a year there'll be at least three deaths caused by people looking at their speedo rather then the road - hey presto, 'justification' for the scamera.

The theft of this camera is disgraceful. It shows utter disregard for our fund-raising targets.
Yep.

Crikey, that's a terrifying statistic. Not.
Evidently that must be construed as a 'blackspot' then

3 people were indeed injured on that stretch of road last year:
1. Dave from Wandsworth was heading home after a heavy night out with his mates on February 16th. He was a bit drunk, tripped up and scuffed his right knee.
2. Michelle, a 12 year old local girl fell off her bike on March 21st, causing a sprained left wrist.
3. Alex, a local joiner was carrying some wood across the road from his van on June 4th when he dropped a large piece of 2 by 4 and it landed on his left foot causing a nasty bruise.
There you have it. Accident blackspot. We really need a camera there.
