I can't see how this person is going to cause an accident Question

I can just imagine,
Guy turns up to court, says that Joe Public caused him to crash as he had to slam on the brakes.
Judge: Eh, do ...

There is another side to this insidious activity is that the voluntary members of this activity are not employed by anybody and as such are uninsured. Sooner or later one of them will cause an accide ...

you only pay the fine when you are breaking the law. Seems a good idea to me that some tax is only paid by those who want to pay it, or are too careless to avoid it. I am really fed up with people who ...

Maybe drivers are too busy rubber necking at the new cameras and fail to see the other, now stationary, cars doing the same thing.

What we need is rubber necking cameras to catch people!

Well yo ...

If the real concern is road safety then surely the process would be different. As a driver the first information you receive about an accident black-spot is usually a new speed camera.

If the emph ...

Errrr, for whom? How does that work in practise? I wasn't aware that the court system is intended to make profits. Could be a good idea, tho'.

Gissa clue.

I thought the whole basis of law ...

Just to throw one more bone of contention into this debate; what if your car has been cloned? This has happened to a colleague of mine (genuine cloning and not an excuse), they receive regular NIPS t ...

I would agree with mikealder in that it’s not worth the risk, however just for the sake of discussion;

True, but at just 600mm away from a shear drop it might not be strai ...

The whole idea simply stinks of corruption. Hide and fine – raise cash. Who givesa damn about road safety. If the police introduced a policy where they simply video-taped murders to allow them to ...

The argument for hiding speed cameras is simple: if you don’t know where they are then you will simply drive everywhere below the speed limit. The logic is so simple, how could it possibly fail? It’ ...

This "cars kill pedestrians" is a fallacy. Pedestrians kill themselves by not taking care when crossing the road - the vast majority of accidents involving pedestrians are the fault of the pedestrian. ...

Perhaps if Crad had chosen a lower (but still high) speed, the point would have been better made.

I wasn’t really suggesting that travelling on an ‘open’ motorway at 180MPH would be advisable or ...

Your vehicle may be capable of that speed and you may well have the skill and experience to handle it at high speed but you are living in cuckoo land if you think 180 MPH is "safe". If anything goes w ...

Yes, there is no surprise, no trial means bigger profits!
