Are you under the delusion the Govt. doesn't know how much revenue they garner from speed cameras?
"casting dispersions on others credability." And their illiteracy.

I read a News article online about these camera's the other day and after the introduction of the camera's they followed with;
"revenue from speeding fines is set to increase to $274 million dollars in the next year, up from $146 million last year".
Now how the f*** could they possibly know that ?!!!!
edit: tried to find the article again to check my figures, could not find it but found another that said;
"revenue from speeding fines is expected to increase by $137 million in the next financial year".
So they actualy plan ahead and are intentionaly forcing the fines onto road users in order to make more money.
