Normally its just data collection to get speed limit dropped in a certain area. I dont think they collect any car details other than speed. (i may be wrong) |

Doing similar in north Swindon, bunch of locals armed with a speed camera, first time they catch you you get a letter, seconded time they pass your details to police and you may get a visit, third time points. (I think). They have undergone training by the traffic cops. They've been doing it along the blunsdon to highworth road in the 30mph zone.  |

I saw them a week or so ago on that road after a trip to Banbury, wife was driving so no chance of getting done for speeding, more chance of running him over than anything |

No. You get a letter from the fuzz saying you were observed/caught by the neighbourhood stasi and that if you do it again you may get a visit from the plod. Again, they can only do you if they themselves or a camera partnership (tax collection service) flash you. |

Dont commit any crime and we can sack two thirds of the fuckers. Let's ask the villains to comply and start laying em off and reduce our council tax.....great policy. |

Oh, so that's why it's OK to drive at high speeds and risk other peoples' lives. |

I really don't get peoples' attitudes to speed limits.....
When it comes to things like drink driving etc, people are all well aware that it is dangerous etc. But why do people seem to think it's OK to flaunt the speed limits?

Because excessive speed is not the biggest cause of accidents - by a country mile - only 5% according to Govt stats and as Swindonians we know that better than anyone http://www.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/news/local/9604736.Town_tops_league_for_safest_driving/ |

Perhaps, maybe, excess speed is not the biggest killer because people are limited to how fast they are allowed to drive. Which, unless I am mistaken, is pretty much the point.
