Apparently Avon Scameraship were advertising during the Monaco GP, alleging that cameras save lives.

Did anyone see this or capture it on video?

Get those complaints in to ASA now!

Yup, I saw it. Still can't believe the way they try to put it across. Now every time Mr and Mrs Numptie drive past one of those roadside shrines, they'll be saying "if only there had been a safety camera there . . ."

Come on chaps - don't just post a moan here, keep picking the partnerships up when they get it wrong.

Rather than making your next post here, make it here instead:

Just sent my complaint in, using the form above. It really does take less than a couple of minutes.

My complaint included the line 'Paramedics save lives, safety cameras use radar and photographic evidence to enable partnerships to prosecute motorists'.

Complaint already sent a while back. I'm sure they'll dodge it but hopefully someone will be made to squirm.

Advert still makes me want to vomit when I see it.
