# exactly
what better way to promote road safety, than to make us take our eyes off the road to look at our speedometers!

# You only have to look once,
very quickly, if you keep the same amount of pressure on the accelerator. When you apply more pressure , you look again, quickly, you don't have to stare at it!!

# in theory, yes
but the statistics have shown that in areas of england that have no speed cameras, there has been a reduction in the number of road accidents, and yet, in areas that have speed cameras, the accident rate is going up. Have a look at www.abd.org.uk

# But that'll be the bloke behind,
who is too close, so when you see the camera sign, you slam the brakes on and then he runs into the back of you. Then you sue his ass!

# This is bollocks.
What about going up and down hills? I have been had twice now for 'speeding' apparently, and both times I wasn't going an excessive speed. Now I spend a lot of time looking at the speedo. Safety? I think not.

# if you have to stare at your speedometer to see how fast you're going

# yup
those new "track your registration plate" speed cameras are the worst, they're using them in 20mph zones which means you have to average below 20mph for the duration of the zone and the only way to reliably do that is get out and walk, or look at the speedometer for most of the journey

and anyway, whose speedometer is 100% accurate nowadays? the one on my car starts at 10!

# Speed cameras (should) have
an intrinsic leeway for error. Plus most modern speedos are usually relatively well calibrated. Probably worth getting faulty ones seen to...
