Dorset traffic light speed camera list is fake
6:42pm Thursday 9th July 2009 in
A LIST claiming to give the locations of 12 further traffic light speed cameras in Bournemouth and Poole is false, it has been confirmed.
The information currently circulating via email claims the new ‘speed on green’ cameras on the A350 Holes Bay Road are not the only ones in the area.
But the Dorset Safety Camera Partnership (DSCP) said the two on Holes Bay Road were the only two in the county.
All the other locations do have red light safety cameras to catch drivers who jump the lights but do not monitor the speed of those driving through green lights.
Johnny Stephens, the Partnership’s head of fixed penalties, aid: “The DSCP can confirm that there are two Speed on Green camera sites in Dorset, both on the A350 Holes Bay Road in Poole. Further information about all safety camera locations in Dorset can be found on the website at dorsetsafetycameras .org.uk.
“Speed on Green safety cameras have been introduced as one of the measures used in Dorset to prevent serious and fatal collisions in the county.
“They will ensure that drivers abide with the legal speed limit and drive at appropriate speeds for these busy traffic light junctions.”

Staff at one of Britain's biggest speed camera units could face job cuts after funding has been halved.
Transport for London has cut the budget of the London Safety Camera Partnership from £5.9 million to £3 million."
This is just the first in a series of sweeping cuts to speed camera quangos across the country.
There, that'll teach you camera people to fiddle your figures to make it look like you're doing a good job when you're not.
When you've filled the media with tales of your success the government believed you, now you're going to pay for it with your jobs.
Oh dear, what a pity, never mind.
(The frightening part is, because the government believed the propaganda, not only do we have impotent speed cameras who're losing their funding, we've also lost 20% of our 'real traffic police'. You camera supporters must surely be getting the big picture and realise what you've done by now?

Why do you want more police? You would have to pay more council tax for more police. Surely it is better to be caught by a camera than by the police? At least with a camera you don't have to sit in the police car for 15 minutes while they take your details, tell you off, lecture you on how dangerous your driving is etc.

Cameras don't "deal with speed", except for within a few meters of the cameras, which doesn't really acheive anything. Neither do they deal with driving too slow, or driving too fast within the speed limit..
They do deal with speed. On average more people stick within the speed limit when there are cameras present. If you drive along the Wessex Way the majority of people are going at or below 50mph. Without the cameras they would be going faster. Yes, there are people who speed up when they have passed the cameras, but they are in the minority. I would support a move to average speed cameras which are almost 100% effective at keeping people within the speed limit.
Quite obviously cameras cannot detect people driving too fast or too slow within the speed limit. Why would you expect them to?
The "don't speed and you won't get caught" is still good advice.
dorsetspeed

I don't expect them to, they can’t because they are unintelligent, but inappropriate and dangerous speed is just as likely to be 25 in a busy residential / commercial area, as 35 on a wide dual carriageway, which both have 30 limits, a good demonstration of why fixed speed limits cannot define what is or isn’t safe. Intelligent policing could correctly target inappropriate and dangerous speed, rather than speed above an arbitrary fixed number.
Yes, many people drive at 50 up the Wessex Way, but is this because they just drive slow, or because they’re driving within the limit? Many people drive at 60 on motorways. Anyone who wants to drive at 90 can and will.

What extra time?, we've already lost 20% of our road going police nationally and in many areas there's been a reduction in patrols of up to 80% because the funding and targets hasn't been allocated for active policing to tackle the likes of drink and drug drive.
There is no 'extra' as the increase in drink/drug and hit and run collisions across the country clearly indicates.
Cameras don't make the roads safer at all, if anything we're more exposed to illegal road users than we ever have been before.
I know it's difficult for the camera fans to grasp, but you obsessive types really aren't doing the rest of us any favours at all.

Unless they are the people who are 3 points off a ban. In which case it is somewhat understandable!
I suspect similar at the junctions only obviously this will be potentially more dangerous. If the real aim was to prevent speeding at the junction they should put speed cameras about 200 yards back. This would also prevent people racing to get through a green then braking hard to pass at 30mph. Which is something you see all the time.

All this time the partnerships have been claiming success at camera sites which the government now claim as a 40% reduction and that they've met their targets.
In a ridiculous twist, they're cutting the funding for cameras and inspite of the increase in death by other forms of dangerous driving the numbers of police are likely to be cut as public sector spending comes under severe scrutiny leaving all of us with nothing but an ageing collection of delapidated twentieth century polaroid cameras on poles.
I know you camera fans don't want to hear the truth, but that's the way it is.

It's far simpler to tell them that when they resurface the road at camera sites with the expensive hi-grip tarmac, it cuts collisions by half compared to the worn out shiney stuff that caused the accidents at the site in the first place.
It is a con, because the camera is irrelevant.

This doesn't only mean there's a growing number of otherwise banned and illegal uninsured and unlicensed drivers out on the streets who're virtually immune to prosecution because the technology has been circumvented.
It also means we're all likely to get prosecuted for their speeding convictions and you won't get any sympathy from the obsessive camera loonys, they, just like people who refused to believe the world was round, simply won't accept their technology is ludicrously falible, unreliable and easy to cheat.
In the world of speed cameras, you're guilty unless you can afford to prove yourself innocent and as we're all beginning to see, finding yourself guilty of someone elses crime is becoming a serious problem that the law simply has to start addressing.

You have all missed your calling….
You should have been journalists.
It is like reading the Sun. “EU Law says we need straight banners…”
It is pandering to the great unwashed. Half hearted stories that play on our sense of justice, but only tell half of the truth.
The police can no longer afford to put more Traffic Officers on the road without MASSIVE increases in funding. I am not prepared to pay for that, I pay enough council tax thank you very much.
It is totally irrelevant if camera partnerships make the money it is claimed it does. It makes a lot of turnover, true. But profits are negligible. Don’t take my word for it, research their accounts and see for yourself.
Best of the bunch is that the scandal papers claim that funding is being cut, making them go out of business (As quoted by Insight, 7:27pm Thu 9 Jul 09). If they make so much profit, why are they being funded?
One of these can not be correct!
The best bit is they catch speeders, which is also against the law. They are designed to catch normal people and warn them by means of a fine and points that their driving standards do not comply with the law.
They are NOT designed to catch dedicated criminals who normally circumvent the law. That is why there ARE still traffic units out there.
If you continually take risks and get away with it, it becomes a habit. Just travel from A to B and look how many bad habits are out there…
Speeding, indicators, cutting up a roundabout, overtaking on double white lines.. the list goes on and on.
If you think you are a good driver, take the online test and find out for yourself if you are still good enough.
Or are you too scared?

This will naturally curtail some of their activities.
It is also clear that these partnership quangoes are comparitively expensive to run and the hundred or so million would be better spent on front line traffic police which would go some way to replacing the 20% the country has already lost.
You are correct about some of the disgraceful driving on our roads today, but then, there's nobody out there policing it, so what do you expect.
As for speed cameras themselves, well, they're a twentieth century example of wishful thinking, designed primarily to alter driver behaviour, but they're simply too easy to circumvent and as it becomes clear they're not very good at their only purpose I suspect the cut in funding to partnerships is a discreet government U-Turn on a project that was really supposed to pay for road repairs so that road tax could be squandered on illegal wars in the middle east.
The speed camera era is almost at an end, there are superior and more cost effective ways of putting 'real police' back on the roads to do the job properly, it's just a pity we're still wasting money on cameras.

You are probably right Nick, however, the lessons learnt from history shouldn't allow technology to overtake common sense.
We live in the playstation generation where buzzwords such as hacking are fully understood and any technology has a short duration of effectivness.
Once anyform of in car tracking device is depended upon and theres enough money in it, the device will be abused and rendered useless.
Just think, as secure as the device will be, it'll take nothing more than a bit of lead flashing stolen from a building site to render the antenae useless and make the vehicle invisible to the technology.

The whole debate about what’s safe and what’s not, what’s lawful and what’s not, what limits and enforcement methods should be is one thing (and one area where a considerable injection of common sense is needed).
But consider the outcome of current policy:
-widespread disrespect of speed limits, the police and the law
-deteriorating driving standards
-a driving attitude of the majority that avoiding detecting for speeding is the most important issue, not driving safely or politely.
-determined speeders and boy racers driving at dangerous speeds as they wish
-unacceptable accident counts
Consider also that proper policing would reduce accidents and congestion, so if the finances were set up properly, it would more than pay for itself.
There is no aspect of current road safety policy that isn’t corrupt and / or misguided, and there are a million things which could be done to make it better.

Lots of what you say I agree with, but we differ on some major points.
The deteriorating driving standards are NOT a result of any policy.
Some time ago I did some major research into driver behaviour for an OU sociology paper. My personal results were that nearly nothing will change driver behaviour except the fear of punishment.
Over the years there have been some major studies throughout Europe trying to understand this behaviour. It was found that, once we get into the Faraday’s Cage that is a car, MOST people’s attitudes change significantly. (Even the mildest person can change).
We feel safe and secure, the road becomes “mine”, not “ours”. We allow ourselves the belief that we know better. No-one thinks that they are doing anything wrong.
Having stopped errant vehicles myself it is amazing what responses you get.
Here are a few I’ve heard:-
“Can’t you leave us (car drivers) alone and catch some proper criminals?”
“You can’t give me a ticket as I pay your wages.”
“I am a friend of the Chief Constable and he will sack you for this.”
“I am a better driver than you are, as it IS possible to drive with a cigarette in one hand and a phone in the other.”
I have also been driven at on a few occasions while attempting to stop vehicles….
The talk about “Proper Policing” is very well. But what do you consider “Proper Policing” to be?
The only way I see to have this “Proper Policing”, is to have a car and traffic copper parked at every junction. As I said earlier, at a massive cost. This finance would come from where? Us.
Last I heard it used to cost the police £75 to process a ticket. So for every £30 NEFP ticket issued the tax payer pays £35 of it. It is my belief that is mainly why “minor” infringements may be ignored sometimes, they are just not cost effective.
As I said before, I can see that more and more traffic offences will become automated. Or even worse, put out for private tender.

While in the same comment you also say, "Having stopped errant vehicles myself it is amazing what responses you get."
Do you not see the problem here.
Those people who've learnt to drive avoiding cameras while driving dangerous nearly everywhere else, aren't facing punishment because there's nobody left on the road to catch them.
Proper policing is about doing 'all of the job' not just trying to convince the media that a collection of convictions less than ten mile an hour over a speed limit (because 97% of them are) solves any kind of problem, when all of us can see it's the druggies, drunks and loonies who surf cameras who kill people.
Having read this, please don't try to put words in my mouth, don't try to imply that I might be saying that those less than 10mph over a limit are ok, they're not, but the authority cannot go on pretending that catching shaols of minnows does anything, while totally ignoring the dangerous big fish just because the dangerous fish aren't stupid enough to get caught by a photo booth.
Speed cameras are as easy to avoid as a pedestrian crossing, you simply slow down for a hundred yards, that's fine, as long as you don't want to cross a road more than a hundred yards from a speed camera....
Those who drive dangerously aren't scared of speed cameras and only foolish people believe that they are!

Stop wasting fifty thousand pounds a time on easily avoid static cameras.
Stop paying operatives to sit in vans drinking tea all day operating notoriously inaccurate equipment. If you're going to pay a wage to anyone on the road, pay a real police officer.
Stop wasting money on partnership managers, who's salary would probably pay for at least three real police officers.
Stop paying to fill the newspapers with propaganda that no one is falling for anymore. In any month long 'real police' operation, anywhere in the country, the conviction rates for anything from speeding to drink drive is shockingly high, so it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what's going on out on the streets the other eleven months of the year when all that's there are stupid, immobile, impotent speed cameras.
For every life lost on the streets it costs the tax payer over a £million pounds, the biggest causes of death on the road are dangerous driving and alcohol with drugs on the way up.
If we slash the number of drunks by 50% the police force has paid for itself.
The only difficulty here is the camera fans having to admit their gimmick doesn't work and forcing the government to cough up funding and targets for 'real police operations' that will be more cost effective in the long run.
The camera philosophy does not work and wishful thinking and misleading propaganda isn't going to change that.

You seem to acknowledge that there are some serious problems on the road which can’t be tackled with existing automated camera technology. Your suggestion that the only way to police properly is to have units on every junction is absurd. Just 1 proper team based in the Poole area may well have observed and disciplined those responsible for the Holes Bay pileup this morning for example, and perhaps prevented this disaster.
The cost to businesses, accident investigation, hospitals, etc of this single event probably dwarf the cost of a decent team for a year. With the finances handled properly it could work very well.
Driving standards have deteriorated as police have been replaced by completely ineffective speed cameras. Cameras do not provide fear of punishment, you just slow down before them and speed up after them other than that you can do what you want.
You point seems to be that things are going to get worse and that what needs to be done can’t because of mismanagement of finances. Yes, agree with you completely, that’s why there needs to be protest and change, and not just submission and a “can’t do” attitude.

I don't think hundreds is at all necessary. A single unit, operating over a period of time, would be extremely effective at filtering out the loonies (like those who caused misery for thousands this morning)
Such a unit may not have been in the right place at the right time for this event, but would have been likely to have noticed such drivers previously. Most bad drivers are bad all the time, they get away with it until the inevitable happens at some point.

The reasons why speed cameras don't work is that you know where the static ones are and you know where the mobile ones are likely to be and further, putting a set of cloned plates on any given car renders it uncatchable.
Police (even a small number) work, because you don't know where they are and unlike speed cameras, they're not so easily fooled when they pull you over and ask to see your license and smell your breath on the way home from the pub.
The highest casualty reduction rates in the UK are in the two countys that don't operate speed cameras and have stubbornly continued to do the job properly inspite of political pressure.

Random policing with real police officers has a distance halo effect of up to 22 kilometres with a time before dissipation of up to three weeks.
In other words, the psycological effects of having real police on the roads performing random checks is hundreds of times more effective and efficient than those of speed cameras.
