  • "Magic speed cameras? They are a distraction and do not prevent speeding - they merely help to fine a motorist AFTER he has been speeding. Swindon has got rid of all speed cameras and seen no rise in accidents. http://news.bbc.co.u

    /8636654.stm and if you're watching your speedometer or a speed camera, you're not watching the road. The problem with the circus that now marks the Bromley site is it now has more distractions than before - concrete chicanes, multiple white lines, signs, a funnelling of traffic into a narrower roadway, cross-flow traffic and altered 'give way' protocols. If you drive slowly, traffic bunches, thus frustrating motorists, who often take chances. I've seen two near misses in one week on my way to work in Colchester, and before the revised junction, I rarely saw a problem."
