Excellent!All he needs to do now is nick the others ripping drivers off!

 

[dhobyitch]

He can hide it in my shed anytime. The little hero.

presumably the police are hoping for a flash of inspiration to help solve the case

 

[slim]

They have asked for help from the public. if this had been a murder case or rape case or any other they would have been inundated with help. But a speed camera, no way

 

[silverfox]

so they'll just have to see if anything develops....

Insp Collis is being really hopeful that someone will help them locate their cash machine. I suggest he doesn't hold his breath.

 

[silverfox]

totally focussed on its recovery...

Only difficulty is getting the group to stand still as he drives towards them at 60mph to get the camera to trigger....

Three injuries a year and they stick a speed camera up :cry:

Injuries caused by drivers braking sharply to avoid being caught by the camera

 

[Oil_Slick]

If 'speed kills'… why are motorways the safest roads to drive on?

 

[silverfox]

Going fast doesn't kill anyone. Its the coming to an abrupt stop that does it..

Serious or Minor injuries??

I thought speed cameras were meant to be put up where serious or fatal accidents had occured but that looked like a straight road so wold speeding be a contributing factor and would speed bumps not be a better use of money ?

Also I saw no safety fences to stop kids/adults/idiots/people with prams/invalid carriages just heading straight into the road thus causing motor vehicles to brake sharply/swerve and thus cause an accident.
