	News: Publicity Stunt Gift Wraps Speed Cameras It's an old story but one I've only just heard of and it made me smile so much I thought you should all hear of it! Early one morning with the aid of company employees, 200 speed cameras across the Netherlands were gift wrapped and thus prevented from operating and issuing tickets! This was part of a publicity stunt to advertise an energy drink. Quite what Dutch Police thought of the stunt is unknown but once the stunt was discovered the wraps were quickly removed os the cameras could resume their fine issuing. The story started me wondering what the response would be if a company did the same thing in the UK. I can't imagine our authorities taking this lightly at all and no doubt those responsible would be facing some charge or other but it would be a great idea for one of the many anti-speedcam groups to copy. Rather than destroying the cameras, I can see the anti-speedcam groups receiving a great deal more support if they were to gift wrap them, or perhaps wrap them in a duvet to keep them warm during this cold snap? You could even fit them with very dark sunglasses for the summer! Click here to read more... Click here to discuss... Posted on Friday, February 12 @ 10:21:58 UTC by Darren Griffin
