Save some money!! With the pound relatively strong against the dollar and I'm sure they have finance options available as well if West Cornwall constabulary are feeling particularly pikey this week!

I'd dontate to the cause...
...so long as I'd be able to use the handheld camera, which I would, but I'd accidentally drop it and break it, oh dear, shame, no more handheld camera
I agree with the person's comment that it's akin to being asked to purchase equipment for the NHS.
Next thing will be them asking for people to help fund a GATSO.

Some states in the US don't allow police forces to purchase their own cameras. They have to be donated. It's normally the schools that are the ones that buy them for the police.

Not good that they are asking for public donations 
- I thought thats what my taxes and the fines from those unable to maintain a legal speed did - pay for more speed guns?
Ah well someone voted them back in again - that NL...I didnt... Its not my fault...

The ****** should get a loan for it, it will return the money on no time.
Perhaps a copper not stod at the side of the road waving a camera at cars to make money for the govenment could be out stopping robbers, rapists, drug dealers, terrorists, murderers, etc.
Shameful really.

Can't see the big problem myself, just wish the law around my place would try something similair.
It is a simple fact - Don't speed and you wont be prosecuted. Same as don't Shoplift and you wont be prosecuted.
It is so simple it hurts

Just get real and realise that if you endanger others you WILL be caught

Also don't be suprised if someone with such a low post count is assumed to be one of pslewis's (or anothers) many extra usernames.

Well said Randjit,
What some dimbwits fail to see is that speding is illegal. They may not like it but that is the fact of the matter.
Instead of griping about the poilicy that is currently in force why not strain the few brain cells they use and do something about it ?
Either abide by the law of the land or attempt to change it, legally I must add !
So many pseudo P Solbergs think that it is acceptable to break speed limits because "I have a car that is loosely based on a rally car, so I realise the dangers of innapropriate speed etc, etc" but do absolutely FA about the percieved wrong doings from HM Government.
How may actually took part in the recent M4 protests ? Very few I would wager.
As Randjit said earler, "It's so simple it hurts, dont break the law and you wont be prosecuted", well said sir
