The governments are using hoons as an excuse for their underhanded revenue raising, if you dont know you have been done or see them they have no incentive to slow down. Example: Clowns doing 80 in a 60, goes past speed camera and gets photo'd for prosperity, 200 metres down the road T-bones a car crossing an intersection not realising said clown is speeding, kills passenger in accident, government gets their money and said clown has still killed somebody. They havent been saved by their supposed SAFETY camera.

True, you can do a lot of damage before the photo arrives, and when it does arrive, do most care??
There is no shock value involved in a picture of your car, you are removed from the incedent, it is just treated as another bloody bill to deal with. But having a set of blue lights in the rear vision mirror, then a p****d off cop in your face tends to stick in your mind, i know it would with me....
And this has more chance of avoiding that disaster 200m down the road than a camera that you may not have seen....
