Basildon would be a bit like Braintree then.
The carpark to freeport shopping village is a lovley place to be in the evening.
I see speed cameras as a good thing because it saves me paying extra TAX to employ extra traffic cops to catch speeders. I also see them as a way of weening stupid twat drivers off the road. They are always in the same place, they are always sign posted to warn you, and if that doesn't make things easier for you they are painted bright yellow so you cant miss them! If you still get caught then I'm sorry but your a bit stupid and so un-observant or blind that you probably shouldn't be driving anyway.
I have lost 2 very good friends, seen one hospitalised and my sister lost a boyfriend because of idiots who were going to fast and/or were too un-observant to see them.
I find the only people who winge and moan about GATSO's are the spanners who get caught by them. Slow down, and there's no problem is there? Beleive it or not, speed limits are ther for a reason and not just to irritate people or be broken. Thats what the track or 1/4mile is for.
Rant over.
