SATURDAY'S LET, April 17 had the usual slot for the future week's speed camera sites.
In the article was the information that civilian operators are taking over the operation of mobile speed cameras!
At a starting salary £16,000, isn't it surprising how well these self-centre-quangos award salaries and allowances pay above those that most local firms are able to afford?
We've seen what other "civilian traffic stasi" are capable of ticketing a hearse during a funeral procession, a motorist whose passenger was dying, etc, etc! What "policing" do the police actually carry out themselves?
