Source on speeding cameras working for anything other than revenue generation?
If that were the case, they would be hidden.
They are a deterrent for speeding most of all.
The ones around here, everyone just slows down getting to that intersection, and then picks up speed again after crossing through
That's the main purpose of that cams. Slow drivers on strategic spots that have more chances of accidents.
That does make sense. Never thought of it that way.
In the UK (Where the op picture is) the police cannot collect the revenue from cameras and other fines. It all goes to the gov so the cops have zero financial incentive to install speed cameras.
Yes but they get the same amount regardless of the fines. The police see no direct financial connection.

More crashes and deaths means less cars and people.
Double win for the environment.
Environmentalists should be encouraging speeding and drink driving.
You know the person who had the greatest positive impact on the environment on this planet? Genghis Khan, because he massacred forty million people.
I have a treat for you
