A spokesman said: "Richard Brunstrom gleefully admitted that his forces are already breaking current regulations by hiding cameras behind walls and roadsigns. "Clearly, as he is still in his job, the government finds this behaviour by our police forces acceptable despite their previous assurances all cameras would be visible. "It's obvious the police and the government are still blind to the fact their beloved cameras are failing dismally to reduce deaths, not only away from camera sites but at them too. The ABD have for years searched for some shred of statistically valid evidence cameras are reducing deaths - so far none has been found." Welsh Tory David Jones, who will fight marginal Clwyd West Westminster seat, said Mr Brunstrom's comments suggested cameras were there to generate money through fines, not aid road safety. Mr Brunstrom said: "We have a particular problem with motorcyclists slowing down for the cameras but then speeding up and dying on the next corner. "We need to keep people's speed down the whole stretch of the road." The ABD spokesman said: "Whilst it is true that cameras may reduce speeds of legally registered and sober drivers, these are rarely the people who are crashing above the speed limit. It appears likely however, that the distraction caused by cameras is leading to less concentration upon hazard avoidance thus negating any advantage of lower speeds." Later this year the government will decide whether to allow police to put cameras anywhere on a "continuous stretch of road where three approved spots already exist." |
