The major problem with this slyness is the lack of respect for the police it creates and the damage it does to their
image. When people lose respect for law enforcers, it becomes easier for them to disregard the law.
Most of the coppers I know, (my brother in law is one)are nice people tying to do what is an extremely difficult and thankless job.
Unfortunately, this sort of underhand skulduggery reflects on all of them. It is a pity that their bosses and the politicians don't realise that.
But the revenue raised from these hidden camera's is now so great, that I suspect all we will see is more and more of them, with no apparent effect on speeding drivers or the road carnage. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]
