Ridiculous.

The video shows two drivers crashing because they jam their brakes on so hard when they spot the speed camera van. Well done plod. Very fookin safe, you MUGS!

I actually found that bit very funny, just as the reporter is waffling on about how safety is important, two people have pretty serious accidents because of the camera vans.....(They really do need to learn how to brake properly though)

2 fairly major accidents caused* by SAFETY cameras - wonder how they were recorded in the road safety statistics.

  • obviously the cocks should learn how to brake from high speed though

My understanding is that even the police don;t pretend these are safety cameras anymore? Every local authority that is closing down these sytems admits it's because the revenue and cost now. These were never about safety it was always about making money. Now people know where the fixed cameras are they don;t make as much money and hence the authorities shut them down.

The best place for these vans is in built up areas nears schools etc. Makes my piss boil when I see tts speeding in our village esp a black and red scooby who insists on over taking everything in sight while in a 30 zone.

Wasn't me in the vid BTW smile

If that GSXR was doing 137mph then the transit behind it must be the Goodwood delivery van because he wasnt pulling away from it very quickly.

Surely the first crash was in Icey conditions?
