Road safety agency GoSafe has criticised a motorist who blocked the view of a speed camera. They accused him of having no regard for road fatality victims.
The driver blocked a camera operating from a van on the A470 in Trawsfynydd, a village in Gwynedd, Wales.
Police were called to the incident, but the culprit had gone by the time they arrived. However, and inexplicably, they returned to the scene only to get fined for having defective tyres.
A spokesman commented: "The Go Safe vans attend locations across Wales where the local community have asked them to be due to the speeding issues at that location. They are there to reduce the number of casualties on our roads and it has been proved that speed is a factor in a high number of fatalities."
He added: "So by obstructing them from doing their job you are showing disregard for the community that have requested their attendance and all those that lose their lives on our roads every year."
