speed camera's are all a money making racket they are not used for the purpose they were intended for they are placed more often than not in obscure places,area's that probally do need them dont get them, they put bumps in the road, car thiefs joy riders love them adds to the thrill.a man of 62 clean licence has just been fined £80 and 3 points for doing 36 in a 30 he thought it was still a 40 which it has been for years! it seems the powers that be intend to make life very difficult for the driver.and the ones who do speed to accsess is probally in a stolen car anyway! tina xx p.s sorry about having a rant :0)

A motorist caught speeding is believed to be responsible for stealing a speed camera to avoid prosecution. Police were called after a member of the public noticed the door on the camera, situated near Longcot, Faringdon, Oxfordshire, was open. Officers say the camera and flash - which will cost over £42,000 to replace - was stolen sometime between Thursday 1 July, and Sunday, 4 July. Police said the driver would have had to stand on a car to reach the camera. Pc Simon Jenkin told BBC News Online: "This is a very quiet area, with very little crime, so I'd describe this as a significant crime. "Due to the height of the camera we suspect the thief would have had to stand on a car or pick-up in order to reach it. "It's likely someone would have seen this and we'd appeal for any witnesses to come forward."
