Oh how totally grown up of them!
Now the scamera vans will have to work overtime to replace the cash spent on the Gatso...really clever!
Nope! Now the scamera vans will have to work overtime to replace the cash spent on the Gatso...really clever!
SCP fines money goes straight to the govt.
The Govt. then issues the local council with an "anti-driving" budget, which they can give as much or as little as they want to the SCP's in the form of a yearly budget.
When it's used up... it's used up.

Point being we are only destroying our own property burn a gatso and every time you get a NIP for speeding remember where the money goes and how it is spent.
Where did the money come from to roll out the Gatsos in the first place?
Who provided the money to the Governement in taxes, fines etc?
SCP's didn't spring into being...the Government set them up...with our money.
Now I don't like the way Govt are spending our money any more than anyone else...I just can't see the logic in setting fire to what it has bought however much I disagree with the duty of the object being burned.
We'll be paying for the replacement as well in one form or another....Celebrating a gatso burning falls a little flat when you remember who's cash bought it in the first place.

The point is that every one of these things that gets destroyed costs the council dearly. Thats money they'd rather spend on other things, like bins, parks, police, schools, roads, etc.Point being we are only destroying our own property burn a gatso and every time you get a NIP for speeding remember where the money goes and how it is spent.

Kill £1,000,000 of cameras in a borough and you won't see them replaced.

Arson about like Captain Gatso and clan do won't make them go away, what it will do is encourage them to develop an indestructible version or a means to catch the arsonists in the act...spending even more of our tax squids in the process. In the mean time those we have not set on fire or blown up carry on doing what they do best...catching those who break the speed limit.
It's a simple fact that authorities faced with civil disobedience always find a way to quell it...at our own expense!

never mind.. you are in a very small minority and most people like to see these cash machines destroyed and burnt
I have seen someone cut the head off one once with a big angle grinder, it's at the bottom of a gravel pit now Captain Gatso does a fine job

Budget used up = no overtime for scamvans.
Budget used up = no money for replacement camera.
Also, as you stated, we've already paid for them... they are ours... and now we want to burn them!
