An email to Jim Moore
Hi Jim,
I see someone else feels similar to me about your organisation.
Comment quote link below "Once upon a time, the police would turn up, measure up, take some photos, examine the vehicles-on site- or take them away to examine later, and then re-open the road, fairly quickly.
If you are held up in a traffic queue now, and have to catch a flight, or a ferry, or your tacograph is ticking away. The police seem unconcerned and absolve themselves of any responsibility of the delays, and adjoining traffic chaos, caused in the area. They spend hours taking minute measurements so they can load them into a computer program to prove that the vehicle was going too fast, the bend was too sharp, the road was too wet, etc,etc, produce a glossy report, present it, and the chances are, nothing will be done to improve the situation at that spot. Highways authorities are spending less on roads, the police have reduced their traffic patrols by 15% to 20%, and rely mainly on Safety Partnership Cameras to police the roads.
In fact, if you believe the statistics from Safety Partnership's, they save so many lives, they're bringing them back from the dead ! If you compare actual UK road death figures over several years, there's hardly any difference, it's mainly spin !"
