News: Half Of Speed Cameras Are Inactive

pocketgpsworld.com
According to an investigation by The Sun, almost half of all speed cameras in Britain are not currently operational.

Of the 3,189 cameras which are located on British roads, 48 per cent (1,522 cameras) were inactive. This was attributed to a reduction in government spending of £38 million and comes shortly after speed cameras celebrated their twentieth birthday.

On top of this figure, some areas, such as Avon and Somerset, were found to have switched off all of their cameras, whilst London pulled the plug on 75 per cent of their localised cameras. This means only 565 cameras out of a total of 764 were active.
