News: Villagers Want to Adopt Speed Camera
Pensioner Pat Ireland's husband Gordon was killed by a speeding driver in her village, Rooksbridge, Somerset, in 2008. She is now trying to persuade Somerset County Council not to mothball the speed camera which she believes contributes to the safety of her community.
The camera is reported to be the second highest earning speed camera in the country.
Mrs Ireland had already set up the "Lights For Life" charity with the intention of erecting new traffic lights in the village, but with the recent council spending cutbacks on speed cameras, she is now looking to use that money to keep the speed camera operational.
Her husband, who was 80, was killed by a car travelling at 57 miles per hour, almost double the local speed zone.
