I'm just throwing this idea around

Maybe we could have a speed camera map?

Anyone else have any ideas on those line?

I've mentioned something along these lines before....

A ready database of where they hide and when they are likely to be there...
At least then we can build up a map of likely sites.....and if one is spotted ring through to another forum member so that it can be posted up on here for the benefit of everyone else



I absolutely detest the things, they have done more to alienate the public from the Police than anything else I can think of!!

No Stig...I hadn't started a thread on here..it was on the other site when it got mentioned a while back.......and got knocked onto the backburner for a variety of reasons.. :thumb_down

It's a bloody good idea if we can get a map or maps of areas and highlight where their locations are though.. :thumbsup

Forewarned is forearmed eh.... :2guns

A survey carried out by Car Parts Direct has revealed that over 268,000 drivers are now banned from driving and millions of pounds are being paid out in speeding fines. Thousands of motorists are losing their jobs, freedom and ability to earn a living. 82% of speed camera victims thought they were driving safely at the time of their conviction and were just unfortunate to be doing a few miles over the limit.

unless the public act, it will only get worse.

most people myself included are all talk and will not do anything, the downside is the select few that do actually do something isnt enough. There needs to be the majority of the public to actually get something done.

Tell me something, how do you run for parliment? abolish speed cameras and speed camera vans im sure will get you elected,
Jason Palmer - BIGJ - you are already greatly missed, RIP friend.

Here's a start to the map for you:

I'll double check the exact location of the camera I've added tomorrow on my way home though.

If anyone knows where more cameras are, let me know, I'll add them on.

Kudos to The Stig and Felix for the idea. - I just did the grunt work.

If it kicks off, maybe we could make it a sticky.

I "think" I made that map a open to public use, so anyone should be able to add a camera location. If not, I'm happy to add them.

Ok, can you try now mate?

There was an "allow all" option that I missed! (ooops)

You should see an "edit" button on the left, that will allow you to choose the balloon to position on the map.

Cheers
