Like I said, it’s a shame there’s no way to avoid playing into ‘their’ hands and giving them all that extra revenue.
Comment on ‘Something doesn’t add up’: the small Queensland town united in its fight against speed camera fines
trk@aussie.zone 10 months agoSpeed is such a nothing burger when it comes to safe driving, yet it seems to be the only thing the police focus on.
A more cynical person might point out the fact that it’s the easiest one to generate revenue from, and when budgets predict a rise in speed camera revenue year on year the focus is maybe not on safety.

They could pass laws fining people for anything, I think the reason speeding is the focus is because it’s easy to enforce. You can’t just point a radar gun at a lane of traffic and have it pick up all the fatigued or drunk drivers.
The people in charge tend to focus on what they can measure, regardless of how important it is.
