Never been hit by one because you needed to be 11 over out here, how is that ensuring public safety.

if there are no points on your record.... then there is no reason for you to slow down.... a financial punishment is not much punishment to many speeders. especially just $40.

I agree that it doesnt help make the place safe when you look at the fact that the 100 mph drunkard doesnt actually get stopped.... however, the fact that the average driver speed dropped, that shows the area is safer.

Not too mention, if they cant ID you... no ticket...... that being so, you know that area of the road has a small physical presence of police in cars.... SOooo.... put your big shades and hat on, and blast through every single time.... no ticket threat.

I dont like the camera radar, because I drive too fast, too often.... however, in terms of my safety, and my future family's safety, I have no problem with them. If you are speeding, and you can be ID'ed, then I dont care if a cop hands you the ticket or a mail man does.... if you speed, you get tickets... that is how it works.

Of course if one ever gets me... I will moan and groan and complain about it like the worst of them.
