Avon Somerset & Glos scam site
Discussion

Had a nose at here tonight, see if any new sites have been added. There are now figures for KSI at each site, plus Operational & Annual Review stuff on there.
I've not looked at it all (was falling asleep) but would anyone like to have a scout and care to comment.
Its nice to see they've bought a Ford Transit, one (of the many) things I object to is them sat in their Ford Galaxys when elsewhere in the country the poor scamera operators have to be in the back of a van!

Had a quick look at some cameras in Gloucs. Picking some sites with nice names 
I see nothing but a set of random numbers with no trends visible over the 5 years provided for each camera. I see the same thing for the RLCs I checked as well.
The numbers being quoted on the homepage for accident reduction could just as easily have been increases given the raw numbers, and may well be next year.
In the drugs world you can't claim effectiveness unless you've had a 200-300% impact on what you're measuring (although this principle has been severely bent with things like salt, fat, etc), because there are so many other influencing factors that can affect the numbers. Even the homepage only claims single-digit percent changes. That's essentially saying what we can actually see -- random fluctuations.
