A second Camera demo possibly illegal?
Discussion
This article says that a future camera demo could be stopped under the Public Order Act.

Police state or nanny state, I can't make my mind up...
I wonder what ECHR would make of this
As for saying slow speeds cause accidents... now I'm confused!
I drive on the M4 from jc10-jc2 every day, and rarely get above 70mph (not through choice). Most days are accident free, and when there are accidents I would say that 80-90% involve lorries or LWB vans...

How on earth is he going to stop that many people protesting anyway? 
This link sheds more light on the accident

As I posted at the time you have no right to protest peaceful or otherwise. Just about any group of three or more can be broken up by using a range of laws.
History shows that direct action is the only way to make a difference. 4 rust buckets should have been purchased and parked across all four lanes and left. This of course should have been done simulatanously on at least half a dozen major motorway interchanges.

The words, "Running scared" spring to mind.
Theyre so full of crap its unreal. First its "Speed kills", now its "slow kills".
Keep the pressure up lads, theyre falling to pieces.
I guess the accident was at or below 56 mph and nobody was killed.
There you go, nugget crashes at reasonable speed and lives to tell the tale.
What were the injuries sustained in the accident?

I crashed at below 30 MPH and lost 2" out of a leg. As we keep telling you, slowing down isn't the answer, it's teaching people to be observant that will save lives.
Direct action, I like the sound of that
Yes Gents and Gentesses, as you have read in this thread and others, we have been “warned off.”
I am spending the next few days taking legal advice and sending a number of letters to local Tory MPs and Councillors – Wiltshire County Council are still Tory-controlled after the local elections, and the national policy of that party, as we have read in their press releases, is to disband the partnerships.
The local Tories around here are, of course, part of the camera partnership and, as I understand it, the Council delegates are only democratically accountable members of that partnership. (I don’t have a vote to say who runs the NHS or the Police – I don’t expect that you have either!!)
Methinks the local Tories might have some explaining to do …….
However, Inspector Wayne Smith is only in charge of policing the motorway in this part of the world – unless you live in Wiltshire, he’s not in charge of policing your bit of motorway and/or your part of the world.
That being the case then, if anybody else would like to organise a protest in their part of the world, that would, of course, be their own affair …….
Besides – now that this thing has started, it would be very bad indeed for the country as a whole if it ran out of steam
Any volunteers for organising the next protest ????!!!!

I always though prevention was better than cure!
Never even come close to having an accident on a motorway when conditions allow speeds that you nab people for
. Have I lead a charmed existance...? Must be bl00dy charmed considering the amount of mileage accumulated. You really ought to get out more!
