I actually saw them taking one out the boot of the police car this week & erecting it in Doncaster. Loads more camera signs have gone up recently, I guess the hardware will be following.

3 in Wakefield - Dewsbury road

....a good thing may come out of this, though.... who's gonna be first to register them with their Geodesy / Origin Blue i?

Matbe now would be the ideal time to market a speed limiting device, so you choose your max speed and it won't let you exceed it ? A kind of aftermarket cruise control

Or an even better time to look for some old tyres and a can of 4-star?????
Not that I would, of course...................:

already been done by a car hifi shop in my home town.
just a simple device that beeps or buzzes when you go over the pre set limits programmed into the device,30,40,60,70 .

quite annoying if you ask me,but it could save your licence.

^Qwerty^

Have they stuck some up on Wheatly(sp?) Hall Road yet? I noticed some signs went up about a month ago, but as of yet no camera's?

If you are from Doncaster, whats the accident rate down that road? Although its obvious that a lot of people break the limit down there, you don't get many people walking about until you get near the centre.

has anyone ever seen one outside a school ?
strange that huh ?

The Mail today reckons there is 6 gatsos in a half-mile stretch on the A657 in Bradford! how can they justify 6 in one place??

Was over in Donny about a week since. I didn't notice any new cameras, but I did notice the complete b*lls-up they've made of the junction near the new bridge. 25 minutes to do about a quarter of a mile. Those new lights that let folk from a side road filter out into a box junction that the main road can't enter, and then do it again 50 yards further on, are a nightmare.
FFS, who pays town planners, and WHERE do they train them?

To be fair though that road is really dangerous (especially dead mans hill). My brother is a firefighter at Ampthill and the amount of times he gets called out to that road with people dead or fatally injured in serious accidents is unreal.

^Qwerty^ - like I said, in Doncaster, there are loads of new camera signs up: Wheatley Hall Rd, & much of the area around the Racecourse, including Bawtry Rd. However, the one I mentioned is the only camera I have seen being put up as yet.

I have never seen an accident on these roads, but I do not know the actual rate. For most of these roads it would be rare to be able to get above the 40 limit anyway due to traffic density.

Marc,
Yes I understand what you are saying but these camera's are about 4 to 500 meters apart on each side of the road just pass the seasons garden centre, and are no where near a bad bit of road.

Road planners now trained by Transport 2000 need we say more.
