Very badly run country indeed.
100% agreement .what can we do
Look into the WEF
Totally agree with all the Woke and leftist stuff going on as well, this country is laterally shite.
@@ianwheat1577false no plates,
It's one big scam look at cop28 it's all to control and rob ever penny we have and you all will comply you have no choice
This war on cars and drivers is getting absolutely out of hand. Completely unfair. Nothing to do with safety. Time to take direct action
what kind of action are you suggesting
@@georgewilson1457 It would be a bit stupid if the OP answered your entrapment question……
That action should be adhering to the speed limits, or if you think they are in error, campaign to get local limits changed to whatever you think they should be.
All drivers should have a car free day once per month or more - a strike on going anywhere: just think how that would affect the dreamt of revenue gains by the government - if the pay per Mile scheme is introduced.
blade runner is going to be a full time occupation.
The government doesn't realise for a lot of us there's no money left. After ULEZ, inflation, tax increases, etc a lot of us have nothing left to give. This country is just going downhill. People will only take so much before they've had enough.
They still can bring the ‘windows tax’ back. Look at historical buildings in London.
They do. It's a plan do create dependency
Blade Runners are just the very small start. Resistance will grow as people start to realise what is happening.
I can feel a move to Portugal looking likely.
I have no more f@cks to give. The government hates us and wants us dead. They are the enemy now
As a half German/half American living in London I can say that driving in and around London has been the greatest displeasure of my driving life!
Because of this I refuse to work in London ever again.
No such thing as a half insert here and a half insert here.
You’re simply a weak man who had no loyalty, and no origin story.
I shall drive everywhere at 19 mph with the exception of motorways where I shall drive a 69 mph in my420 bhp roadster.I shall probably cause many accidents after falling asleep at the wheel through sheer boredom.How I hate what this bleedin country has become.
100%. I cannot concentrate when I drive too slowly.
@woolychewbakker5277 Maybe I'm just quicker thinking than you.
PS - I think all they're really interested in is how many claims I make. I'm doing OK there - how about you?
Matter of time B4 they get taken down ?! I wear baseball cap and sunglasses with sun visor down anytime I use the car? These cameras cannot see through those I'm afraid?! UK is a scam racket and always has been! I hope people fight back with vandalising these cameras and mass disobedience?! The fascists can suck it up?!!
I dont bother with insurance@woolychewbakker5277
@@dungareesareforfools Bingo. 👍 the divide is clearer and clearer every day, those that will follow what is coming and those that will resist. Remain at your post soldier.
I will repeat. All speed cameras are not meant to make the roads safer but only to make profit. This is the main selling point, as I remember, in presentations of these speed cameras manufacturers.
Yep it can't be about safety, everybody caught by the camera continues on speeding, there has been zero intervention at that moment, this being the case there should be a high rate of car accidents that occur after a speed camera created solely by the people who are speeding, strangely however, this is not the case.
More and more I get the feeling the 20mph speed limit was in preparation for this. The 20mph was stage 1 of the plan. Stage 2 is put up the cameras everywhere. Stage 3 Start counting the money this will bring in.
Shame they have not been so proactive in actual crime.
they not after your money,,, they after your license.. thats the endgame no drivers
They have: We are now the criminals.
Seems so. From my observations; maybe 5-10% of drivers keep to 20-22 mph, 75% go 25-27mph, and the rest go around 27-30+ mph...
It’s not about money, it’s about reducing us to a state of serfdom
They ARE after your money. People in cars are a very easy target.
Question: How many crimes solved today officer?
Police (Government): 100
Question: What were they?
Police (Government): 3 Burglaries, 97 people exceeding the speed limit by 5 mph.
@@hearingfiber6816
20mph zones anywhere other than outside schools at school times is just RIDICULOUS
I have to say that often 20mph is the maximum safe speed on small residential roads, especially when lined with parked cars, but really anyone who's incapable of judging a safe speed in obvious conditions like that is not qualified to hold a licence.
Ok ok I was a bit hasty in my frustration.. I just wish common sense wasn't so rare anymore 🤦♂️ All this trying to wrap everyone in cotton wool has gone too far!
Nothing to do with safety its control and changing behaviour.
you are right. it should be 15mph
Grow up and drive the speed limit.
It's amazing how the police forces have no money to solve burglary or violent crimes, but can always find the cash for new toys to penalise the motorists.
It will be the Councils raking the money in. Same with parking charges, fines for straying into Bus Lanes, congestion zones, ULEZ, The Road Safety Partnership.
Funded by Serco who own the brand rights to Gatso within the UK.
Nowt to do with the police. This is the local authority
Easy to understand once you know that every police force in the UK is a registered business and like any business they need to make money. Investigating a crime takes money, fining a motorist makes money.
@@fractalofgod6324 Well Lincolnshire police even gone one step further it's been G4S privisted for the near decade on a beta trial before the rest becomes privisted.
As you pointed out in the video, especially in 20mph zones, you spend more time looking at your speedo than on the road and what is happening around.
the number of times I leave a 20/30/40/50 mph zone only to find I didnt know I was in it, gives me heart attacks.
In California, we had red light cameras for a while, but they were taken down. This happened after investigative reporters found out that accidents INCREASED after the cameras were installed. Since safety was the primary justification for putting the cameras in in the first place, they wound up taking them down. Recently, however, there is talk of putting them up again along with a whole bunch of other anti-car measures.
Had a police car in Cardiff earlier this week (lights and horns going) drive beside me; the officer got out and shouted at me because I wouldn’t go into a bus lane to let him pass. I’d been stationary well before he came into view. I told him to stand in front of me and direct me into the lane or I wasn’t moving. His language “asking” me to move was entirely inappropriate for a police officer, but he eventually did as I asked and I hit the button on my dash cam saving the entire encounter. I’m just waiting for the letter in the post with a fine to arrive…
Well done my friend....don't trust any of them...
@@njkip thanks
I will believe this when I see the full video.
Doesn’t matter if he asked you or not. Just the same as if you are stopped at a red traffic light and a blue light police,fire or ambulance is trying to get though. They are directly asking you to move with lights and sirens. If you pass that line and a camera is set off then they don’t care if you were moving out of the way when they send the summons. Stay where you are. Sounds selfish but a substantial fine and 3 points on your licence making your insurance dearer that year is making people not care to move any more. There’s no discretion for a ‘good’ citizen only boxes to be ticked, quotas to be met/exceeded and coffers to be filled. They can’t have it both ways!
@@Buck3366 well put....nailed it👍
It's not about safety anymore. It's just about revenue
I think it always was tbh
I can confirm as a Manchester resident these cameras are slowly replacing the existing gatso boxes. Some are difficult to spot compared to the old gatsos. Ive heard you can be prosecuted for effectively going 1mph over the set limit. Best of luck out there dodging the points drivers. Insurers and the revenue collectors must be rubbing their hands 💰💰💰
It's not just robbing people, but you also get points and you can lose your license and potentially your livelihood if you rely on a car, and it's so difficult to avoid straying over 20mph even if you have no intention of doing so. Who are these cruel politicians, why are they doing this!
@@DigiDriftZone nonsense stick the limits its fookin easy
@@DigiDriftZoneYou assume the so called politicians are actually in control? It's starting to become clear now that the likes of Sadiq Khan, Boris, Hancock & Co. are just paid fall guys. I'm sure plenty of others would happily assume the same well renumerated roles in exchange for their souls.
@@apocalypticweasel9078 Everything you've said in your entire life is nonsense... probably.

Once again drivers are easy cash cow targets😢
Lol it's not about making money it's about inslaving you,
only if they are legal, the crims get away with it
The amount of “our” taxes they spend to tax “us” more is incredible…..could always fill the huge amount of pot holes in if they “really” want to make the roads safe….🤷♂️…..
Absolutely 👍
UK is not a real country, it is a business, run for profit, it is not about serving the ordinary people.
Not having to swerve to avoid giant pits in the road would certainly make my drives safer.
As I live outside of London, I do my utmost to avoid driving inside London to avoid the ridiculous amount of restrictions, cameras and non sensible speed limits. All of these banana skins are there to provide councils with money, due to paying for their incompetence
The motorist is now fair game as a ‘Cash Cow’
Spot on Biffadog! Never was anything to do with safety. You only have to track where the money from the fines is going! The guys running the councils are enjoying a truly grand life style at the expense of the motorists. None of that collected money goes anywhere near improving safety for pedestrians or other drivers, that’s for sure!
Yes, I live in a very rural area where we can enjoy concentrating on driving rather than tip toeing along between camera's. Having said that, in a town 18 miles from me I have noticed a camera has been partly hidden behind a wall on a blind bend. Clearly a money making set up rather than concern for road safety. 🙄
I won't go into that shitehole called London ever !!
The cameras will be everywhere. Not just town and cities.
Always has, right from the petrol pump!
I COMPLETELY agree with you about these cameras taking focus away from the important road safety aspects. But let’s face it, the authorities claim that these things are designed to improve road safety but in reality we all know that this is about one thing,and one thing only, and that’s raising cash.
I live in London and what I'm noticing more and more is the fuse getting shorter and shorter in exasperated drivers (and, even though I'm a cyclist, they have my sympathy).
I imagine there will be a sharp rise in deaths on the roads... It won't be road traffic collisions, it'll be road rage incidents.
As for electric vehicles...doesn't matter what speed limit they impose, if you're a pedestrian and ya have one of those hefty feckers hit ya, guess who'll win! 🙄 🙄
Totally disagree, very few people die in road rage incidents, generally they just feature idiots shouting at each other.
@@tink6212You now have to consider the fact that an EXPERIMENTAL injection has been pushed on the population of the world. Some say that's responsible for much of the crazy antics that we are seeing nowadays. I really don't know but it's certainly responsible for many heart related issues so maybe it's gone to the brain too
The phrase "I imagine there will be a sharp rise...." suggest's its not happening now but may well do in the future.@@tink6212
@@tink6212 I didn't say they 'did'!
@@figeepoet You are right, you 'imagined it'.
That is a great video, really great points raised with the concentration levels at risk, I am sure everyone will agree. Keep up the great work.
🙏🏽☺️
@@BrownCarGuy What is this shxt about LOCAL AUTHORITIES installing these Cameras? You breezed over that part very quickly didn't you?
Totally agree re awareness issue. One company I drove for had a vehicle speed monitor and you were in trouble if you exceeded the speed limit even by 1 mph. They had to change this because drivers were concentrating on the speedo so much rather than what was happening around them on the road and therefore resulting in dangerous driving.
I can fully understand why people are destrying these highyway robbers!
They installed these new cameras in Bedford during the lockdown. They are situated much higher than the old gatsos, probably to ensure you don't notice them.
or get vandalized…..
Interesting would you mind disclosing the locations . I live in Bedford!

Clapham Road, just past the Union Street roundabout.
The question is, what are we the public going to do about the unnecessary impositions being placed on us, simply to milk us of our money?
We could all learn to drive properly, with decent secondary training from RoSPA/IAM, then make a case to the government that speed limits are unnecessary as trained drivers drive to a speed appropriate to the conditions. But people won't do it because they are to damn lazy and expect everything handed to them on a plate.
Simple. Don't pay. I'm not paying VOSA and getting chrged for road use as well. If no-one pays then the law is void.
Fuk all unfortunately
100% this. But people are weak. No i am not jabbed btw as most are. Point made.
Simple. Find a better country to live in and make that move. This one is declining FAST!
The argument will sadly always be, if you're not speeding you don't need to worry about cameras or even look out for them. Easier said than done when they book you when you go over the speed limit down a hill for a second, this is of course planned for most revenue.
Firstly, you need to be going more than 10% over the speed limit to get prosecuted. Secondly, there's a reason cars have brakes
@@Unshou agreed, but 10% of 20mph and 30mph is very small. Yes we can use our brakes and send more unnecessary dust pollution into the air. Or we can drop down a gear and use more fuel. All the while there is nothing in front of us and no pedestrians near any road we're on. But speed limits are set because there are dumb people who have no common sense.
It's a fair comment, too much to look out for can end up being more dangerous and potentially missing the most important things instead.
You don't have to look out for anything extraneous if you are obeying speed limits.
@@greeftish That’s bullshit and you know it. we don't all drive around like bell ends as you project by your comment. let me guess you were first in line for the covid jab too? give me that go go juice daddy government mmmm
Life is becoming like a diet of sugar-free vanilla blancmange. Along with your hard-earned cash, they are sucking any enjoyment out of everyday life.
I’ve been saving this for years! I used to be able to focus completely on the road and what’s happening around me, but now I’d estimate that at lest 50% of my attention is focused on checking for all the different speed cameras and watching my Speedo. The official line is that if you’re not speeding, you have no cause for concern but that’s rubbish as how will you know if you’re speeding if you’re not constantly checking your Speedo? Average speed Amerasian are the worst as you have to watch your Speedo literally all the time! Then there’s the new 20mph limits which are a complete menace. Few cars are comfortable at that seep not matter what gear you are in and doesn’t the Highway Code advise to ‘Drive in sympathy with your engine’? Something these stupidly low limits make impossible. I’ve been driving in Wales for a week or so now and often I am faced with a sixty mile an hour limit that suddenly drops to twenty with the only warning being when you enter the twenty zone resulting in my having t9 break heavily , risking a rear collision with the vehicle behind me if the driver is not as quick to react as I am. I used to enjoy driving but no longer. It’s fast becoming a complete nightmare!
In Australia, The road toll was steadily going down until around 1997. This was the year that speed cameras were introduced. Also speed limits have been reducing in many areas (sometimes as much as 50 kilometers per hour slower) The road toll that had been reducing, has slowed and now reversed. We are on track for the highest road toll in years.
That's because the shit drivers are busy on their phones.
Correlation does not imply causation.
@@dudmanjohn In every other area of road safety, the authorities claim just that. For years while the road toll was going down, we were told "its our enforcement" "The numbers are clear" Never mind the dramatic improvement in car safety and the fact that all around the developed world were experiencing similar drops in the toll. There is also an incentive to raise revenue. So after decades of the road toll reversing and slowly going back up, at what point does the Government get held to account? or at the very least, divorce itself from profiting in this way to remove incentive?
What's a road toll?
It’s because of 90% of my fellow Australians took the snake poison. Spike protein on the brain, the heart and most of the body. It has impaired there judgment. Heart attacks while driving. Before convid, all road crashes used to be monitored every holiday season. Not anymore, crashes have gone through the roof.
I totally agree , plus the road rage it generates if you try to keep to the 20 limit . They say 20 is safer than 30 but surely 10 is safer or safer still would be 0 mph .
20 in built up areas has been a proven speed to reduce risk of death or serious injury. If people around you have road rage, report them. Better still , let the idiot pass then you have control because the prat is in front of you instead of tailgating.
We've had one of those nasty little things in Plymouth since 2015. Colloquially known as the most prolific speed camera in Devon. It's apparently been recorded to have caught more than all the other speed cameras in Devon and Cornwall combined. I guess we must have been a TestBench. I first caught wind of it when I got sent a fine with a vector based picture of my van going through about a couple miles an hour over the speed limit. Wouldn't mind so much, but it's on a main road into the city centre, which is nowhere near a school or built-up area. It's just there to collect money.
Why has no one destroyed it?
Central Park or Billicoombe road?

perfect example of how we are becoming more stressed due to driving. Thank you for your commentary
We need to rise up against this tyranny!
YES, but sadly people won't. Just as with lockdowns/masks/jabs, man-made climate change crap, etc., the majority fall for the BS and 'comply' every time. They've been brainwashed, literally... they've lost all critical thinking skills and common sense!
I have noticed all the new Average speed cameras now have very dull yellow paint and no reflective materials so at night they just look like a dark grey post - you cant see them at all.
So if you dont know the road, you wont notice its average speed. Also there are now no signs to say the road has speed cameras like before.
On the A683 From the M6 through Caton - they installed new average cameras - but also left the static camera in place and have removed speed camera signs from each end of that road as well as removing some smaller repeater speed limit signs.
Sounds like they need "brightening up" with reflective paint.
@@brianlopez8855 sounds like they need angle grinding one dark night
I wonder what would happen if the factory was ********* down. Every thing b**** in the end.
remember the cameras are part of control, nothing else
To have, as a central purpose, zero accidents is beyond foolish. You can reduce accidents, you can mitigate the effects of accidents, but we share the road with other drivers, cyclists and pedestrians and sometimes a couple of those will want the same bit of road at the same time. It's like saying zero obesity, zero accidents in the home, zero fall on stairs ..... what "they're" doing is top-down planning for perfection in an imperfect world and "they're" either stupid or malevolent.
No police force ever talks about "zero" accidents, the clue is in the word "accident"
At a "driver awareness" course I had to attend the presenter ask what we thought was the most dangerous thing on the road. I answered "average speed cameras", the presenter asked why and I pointed out that you would spend your time looking at your speedo and at cameras and not at the road, he couldn't comment.
Oh and there is no Speedo difference allowance any more. You can be done for 32 in a 30mph zone.
Come on the blade runners 😊
What's the evidence for the allowance change? I've still been doing slightly above the limit and haven't got anything yet.…
I was done on one of the many reduced limits recently. I now abide by all limits to the letter. My journeys have never been so dangerous. I’m being overtaken regularly even when on two wheels. This stinks and proves we do not live in a democracy…
Why did you pay it?? It will get worse if you comply.
Because I drive an ambulance and I’m not much use to anyone without a licence…
The problem is the people over taking you. Not you following the rules. They signed up to follow the same rules when they got their license, so don’t blame yourself for their rule breaking
@@jessicahitchens6926lol don't act like you wouldnt have eventually paid 🤣
Let's also not forget that in addition to speed, drivers are also monitored for just straddling a bus lane, stopping (however briefly and with very little of the vehicle) in a bus stop, red traffic lights, yellow crosshatch areas, over staying, however briefly, in a parking bay ULEZ/LEZ and congestion etc etc. DVLA sells, what is in my view our data that should be covered by GDPR rules and kept private for all but the most serious offences. It's sad how ANPR tech is now being used. Shame it can't track the journey and whereabouts or my neighbour's car that was stolen of their drive eh! So yes, I agree, this persecution is counter-productive. It does little to nothing to help with defensive driving. What's more, idiots who don't have a licence, insurance etc, or who have stolen a vehicle on false plates etc won't take a blind bit of notice will they?! No doubt AI could even be used to fabricate 'evidence' in years to come. All this just has to stop. Have we been asked if we want our taxes spending in the manner? So can anyone tell me why peddle cyclists don't have to conform to the speed limits? They can kill you know. Mmmmm....
You are better off just parking up IN the road and block it rather than try to pull over and get a ticket in a bay or at the curb or bus stop..
And they change the terminology just to catch you out. A no entry except for buses sign has suddenly become a sign saying "Bus Gate".
They will go for the cyclists in the future. Guarantee you that. They will make them get a permit/license etc. And tax then..
Its called Socialism and its everywhere nit just Britain.
Black belt barrister has a piece on why cyclists aren't penalized as motorists are. Long and short of it being as the law stipulates a motor powered vehicle. The law is not fit for purpose, it should stipulate all road users as one. No penalties for cyclists running red lights, Knocking people down or cutting you up without a care for their own safety (not from their actions anyway), there's idiots in all forms of transportation motorized or otherwise.
Try driving a hgv for a living if you think you have too many rules on the road 😞
Ever since speed traps became a problem, too much attention has been diverted from the road and other road users to the speedo
Don't talk shite. So before speed cameras you just drove at any speed did you?
If you are incapable of keeping track of your speed in relation to the speed limits hand your license in TODAY.
@@bravo2966 Wow, if only everyone was a genius like you.
So you never look at your speedo, yeah right.
James 20 miles per hour is a third less than 30 very slow difficult to judge because cars are manufactured to travel at low revs in fourth gear comfortably but at twenty you usually have to drop down to third gear which requires you to rev more than you would do travelling in fourth gear doing thirty this is why you have to adjust your revs in accordance with this new speed limit then of coarse you have to check the Speedo as well everyone iv had contact with agrees with this do you drive at all.
@@jamescollins3647 What on Earth are you talking about? Of course I look at my speedo, it's how I find out what speed I'm going at.
Anything controlling js done by a robot shouldn’t be allowed. Thats how we could end up some kind of artificial intelligence dystopia where we lose control of our own ability to manage ourselves and are taken over by hostile A.I.
Oh, and I forgot to say that when human beings are being watched, it turns up the pressure, and when that happens mistakes occur. Just think how you felt when you took your driving test for instance. You never know, despite being very careful, whether or not after any journey, you might be receiving some kind of PCN through the post. Is this the way we want to live?
This is why I don't see a point in wanting a super fast expensive car. I still got an old 1.2 that's over 10 years old. Driving these days is a hassle. I'm glad I don't drive a lot.

Imagine if they put as much money into creating devices that detected real crime?
There's no profit in that so it will never happen.
Everyday ... robberies, muggings, assaults, burglaries? They won't even turn up when they are reported most times.
Not in the least bit interested. There's no money involved (for them).
They jump on it when drugs are involved though, grabbing the dealers cash. They jump on on it INSTANTLY!
We are living in very sad times in the UK and it's getting worse.
They might as well cut to the chase and impose a national 2mph speed limit on all motorists. Job done
Thanks for the heads up. This is yet another depressing thing being done to us. Driving anywhere is such a strain, not enjoyable at all.
If it's infrared image, could likely be fooled by an electrically heated film applied to the number plate. That overexposes the image, or even a heater behind the plate
I moved from Southend on sea to Minnesota. What a difference. It is considered unconstitutional to put up speed cameras. A cop with a hand held is the usual method of being caught. Red light jumping is huge problem. My last visit to the UK made me realize that the system is designed to catch you. Speed limits on country roads, changing every few miles, and not always to the same limits. I felt very relieved to get back here without getting a ticket.
And no one gets shot there either…

Looking down at a Speedo to make sure it's not doing over 23mph - so that's between 20and 23mph (even though should the authorities choose could fine you at 21mph,) is only a small movement of the dashboard speedometer needle . This makes it more difficult to differentiate between 20 mph and a speed at which you know you can be booked for Ie 24 mph on a camera or 21mph if the police are following you , hence you are looking at the dash for that fraction of a second longer, when if they have, as they claim, introduced these measures on the grounds of safety , this is actually making the situation worse and in fact Dangerous because a drivers focus should be 100% on the road.

The Sweeney's doing 90 cos they've got the word to Go. Join the police and you can drive as fast as you want.
Oh no you can't. It doesn't work like that.
Suffolk Constsabulary HQ on the A1214 they drive like mainiacs when on a shout. They will kill somebody down here one day.

“…Nowhere to go”
They are on trailers here in Australia. Mobile so they can move them around...... yet they never do 😂
Apparently for getting you on your mobile phone.
However I've heard through the grapevine they are actually for tracking where people are going & because the pictures are so clear they can see everything inside the car.
If the windows are super tinted, expect a knock at the door.
Wouldn't surprise me
Careful with the tints, the "supertinted" windows are illegal
No camera has ever made a Road safer. It’s all about the money
Previously I didn't have a problem with gatso cameras. A large camera, painted yellow. If you get caught by that, you probably deserve it.
But these cameras are so small that painting them yellow doesn't help much. And considering ALL they need is a power source, nothing else, how long before they strapping them to lamp posts making them even less noticeable? Without a yellow pole, you haven't got much chance if you don't already know about it. It was the first thing I thought when I saw them, and sure enough the manufactures website even mentions this.
And before the 'just don't speed' crowd turn up, that's exactly the problem. I don't make a habit of speeding. I'm not a boy racer, I try and drive sensibly, focusing on the road, but I'm not perfect. And cameras like this aren't playing fair. When you end up being caught out by one of these cameras while trying your best, while simultaneously having to deal with selfish aggressive driving and tailgating daily (ironically because you stick to speed limits) you feel very aggrieved.
Regular decent drivers end up getting caught out for minor transgressions, while anti social, selfish and aggressive drivers continue with little enforcement, because cameras can't enforce that. As I type this, I listen to the nightly idiots flying past into a blind bend at a totally inappropriate speed, while simultaneously being terrified of being caught out by these cameras. It feel inevitable, it's not if, it's how long.
Fully agree about too many things removing your concentration from developing a good on going driving plan. Cars may be built safer but that is counteracted by too many incar distractions too, sat nav. Radio displays etc
Exactly right. You're talking about confidence. If you're over concentrating on what not to do you'll make mistakes.
I totally agree about focussing. I still remember the days when you could do just that and you could drive faster, smoother and far more safely when the road conditions permitted. This has never been about safety but it’s now gone from merely being a revenue earner to full on tyranny. And that tyranny extends well beyond the motorist and into every aspect of our lives.
It's not about safety it's just about maximising money.....
Great presentation. Agree with everything you said. Keep up the good work.
Great video; as always 👍🏻
So while looking around. You're not looking at your spead. It's cash cash cash. Eventually everyone will have points. Then millions will loose their licences then their jobs
That's what they want.
so they can eventually get your house
Ah another target for the Blade runners to get , cheers for the heads up Mate 🍻
these and all speed cameras need the same treatment as the ulez spycams
Vision zero 2030 is another example of politicians not understanding reality. Firstly you can't eliminate accidents. Doesn't matter how safe things are, accidents happen. This is why you can be assured someone will die in a plane crash every year, even if billions more fly every year.
Secondly, the more you automate driving and turn these safety ideas into funding opportunities, the less safe people are going to be. You see it today, people drive so badly now compared to a few years ago because they are just focusing on not being caught doing something illegal rather than just being safe.
Personally, I see this as an opportunity to buy a drone to place a bin over these cameras. Could even become a trend! 😅
This is good advice, however, drivers need to be included in a debate about these numerous intrusive cameras as to whether they are a distraction and a nuisance. The Councils and Governments are very rude just going along with these agendas. Anyway Brown Car Guy, if you are celebrating the Festive Season, have a good one. 👍🎄
Thank you - Seasons Greetings to you and yours too!! 🎄🎅🏽🙏🏽☺️
Great comment.
You don't get debate in a dictatorship
They're going to have to stop giving points for speeding or else no-one will be going to work soon.
I suppose more things to cut down 🤔
Motorists and Motorcyclists need to start standing in local elections as Independents or for Ukip, Reform etc
These 20 zones are not safe, i had my first accident last week after 27 years of driving. Someone hit me in the rear and now i need to get it repaired. Wont be reported as i dont want to lose decades of no claims and the excess is hundreds. So in my opinion it causes more accidents and the stats wont be reported. People are not focusing where they should be.
I've been undertaken by cyclists as a result of a 20 zone here.
@@Chambers36TheEnter strange that it's bever happened on a 30mph road, motorway or at 150mph+ on the autobahn in all these years. There are too many distractions on the 20mph zones. It's only about £1000 of damage so guess its minor and no broken bones (although they heal for free).
Where I live they have installed AVERAGE speed cameras. Basically a camera at each end of a measured distance that is unknown to most drivers. The idea being to keep people "honest" over a longer distance, not just slowing down for the camera and speeding up again. Of course once it's known where the cameras are the hooligan element pass through the first camera, park up for a bit, and then blast off down the road at hyper-illegal speeds past the second camera. This got countered with multiple cameras one after the other to catch the offenders. Whatever system is in place it soon pays for itself as people will speed, intentionally or not, stuffing more cash into the "authorities" back pocket.
Round here in West Sussex the roads are superb and relatively unused. I retired four years ago, bought a Porsche, go for a joy drive most days. No problems thus far. I don’t speed in villages. Hardly any cameras anywhere and no speed traps. Lovely.
Keep up the good work
This is why we drivers feel we are a cash cow 🐄 the government keeps on milking. A couple of things they've no reason to do this as everyone slows down for the empty Gatso boxes in the first place.
To beat the distraction of too many cameras, if you have cruise control use it, the only time you going to have to keep your eye on it is going down hill.
The Dutch do it differently. They take away road markings and road signs so you have to concentrate on the road.
The lower the speed limit, the less the driver has to concentrate. After all the govt adverts say that 80% of people hit at 20mph will live... so drivers only have to concentrate 20% of the time... This comment is tongue in cheek, for anyone lacking the mental acuity to realise it! :D . Excellent video as usual Shahzad, many thanks.
😂😂😂
Yes Totally agree, Every time i'm in London I have to up my game double Now " feel like a one armed man in a juggling competition" I also hear they're removing the 10% speed allowance as mostly we are digital. Just remember Guys it's your licence so ignore the idiots tailgating! stay within the boundaries.....Nice job Brown car Guy👏👏👏👏
I'm currently working on a sliding number plate system I've tried the prototype out and it works fine using dot matrix principles and a light pulse system that affects any camera lense it has worked on the Manchester cameras so far .
When you sort it I'm a buyer....do you know much about these reflective films they put on the windscreens....I've seen a few cars with this orange film on, like a 2 way mirror type thing, you can see out but can't see in so can't see who's driving....are they legal...
Not only are they not legal, you can get jail time for them. I’m not a fan of 20 limits either, but that’s not the solution.
@@djb730 what the number plates of the tint coverings....or both?
@@njkip I think the sliding one will get you in massive problems. There were some guys who developed a flip system for motorcycles and they went down for it. The tints are just illegal and more likely a fine.
Hi power true infrared bulbs invisible to the naked eye so have no effect on visibility of plate. However it be will cause the camera image to be completely over exposed.
In Manchester where these speed cameras have been installed a 7 year old girl was killed by a 14 year old hit and run boy on a motorbike earlier this year.
Here in Kent we have a number of unregistered motorbikes riding on roads, public open spaces and public footpaths. I have seen them doing 60 mph as they pull wheelies through 40 mph speed cameras.
Cars and vans are driving at 40 mph in 40 mph zones while being overtaken by motorbikes riding on the central hatching and over double white lines. Even if they have registration plates the forward facing cameras don't catch them.
When you steer around a downhill corner your attention must be on the road, when you straighten up and adjust your speed, you already have a ticket.
On my car the digital speedometer is just above the steering wheel, 2 lines of trip details are above it, to read the speedometer you have to take your eyes completely off the road and near focus at least 6" below the lower windscreen edge. Looking at the speedometer is dangerous in a rapidly changing road situation. No allowance for this is taken by the law.
Will police vehicles, including mobile speed camera vans be exempt from speeding regulations if they are caught by speed cameras while not displaying emergency flashing lights? Mobile speed camera vans don't observe double yellow lines or proximity to junctions when setting up, under American law any photos taken would be the fruit of the poisoned vine.
I used to enjoy winding up an early 'flash-flash' Gatso near a crossroads west of Chessington. It was set to zap traffic going into the village from the west. If you were going OUT of the village on a motorbike (no plate on the front) you could blat past it and both flashes would go off at once in one enormoflash. Great fun.
I recently took a trip to Wales where they have introduced 20mph zones and these cameras. I can confirm they are purely a money making exercise as the zones change from 30 to 20 and back again within feet of each other. It was hideous to drive there and felt like I was being tricked into breaking the law! I'm a careful driver and drive within the law but boy, it was a minor miracle that I didn't get a ticket as sometimes it was impossible to tell what speed I was meant to be going!!
Seen them for years. On A3 in Surrey and 30mph roads around Woking. The good part is teaching people to stop using phone while driving and anyone who doesn't 'clunk-click' deserves a wake up call.
It's exactly why the police want access the DLVA licence photo to nail the offenders ... excellent.
Totally agree, people are going to be spending more time watching the dashboard than the road.
None of these draconian restrictions are all about road safety, they're primarily about emptying the motorists wallet. Your piece at the end resonated with me very much. I spent probably at least 30-35 years as a professional driver of vans, trucks and cars. Long distance, short distance, local, and general courier work, I've also driven extensively in Europe ( including Austria in winter, and including 8 years living in the Spanish Canary Islands ) as well as the USA; where, incidentally I saw some of the worst driving ever ). In all that time, I've only been involved in about 4 or 5 accidents, in every one I was either hit from behind or t-boned. I completely agree with you about being aware of your surroundings at all times. Anything that impinges on that awareness is detrimental to road saety.
controlling behaviour by fear
Really great info given on this channel. Defensive driving was my specialty when I was a instructor.
After 50 years of driving zero points, zero fines I find it sad to see the standard of instructing and
driving so poor. So many drivers are completely clueless in their ability to see the road, develop that
3 D image you speak of. They blindly drive into situations where holding back would benefit them so
much. The driving test is so easy now and the lack of signalling which is taught now pathetic.
Only if required instruction I hear so many times, as if a newly qualified driver can decide in a split
second if a signal is required, result no drivers signal anymore. The HGV turn has become normal
for car drivers, swinging out left to turn right as if they are a artic, again where has that come from
pathetic driving by pathetic drivers. I actually welcome these cameras and hope the prosecutions
for seat belt and phone use whilst driving rockets. They deserve everything they get. Whilst I don’t
agree with 20mph zones they are as a result of poor driving standards, simplifying driving test and
lowering standards required to pass. All have resulting in poor quality drivers on our roads.
Also why do most drivers look left first?
Thanks! I have a theory about the ‘HGV’ turn: as cars have gotten bigger and longer (SUVs) and rims have gotten larger and more expensive, people feel the need to ‘clear a bit of space’ before turning. It’s a subconscious thing. What do you think?
@@BrownCarGuy I think you are right about that, My car came with Alloy wheels, and low profile tyres, I hate them. I had no choice in the matter.
Thanks for your comment I'm 70 and now I know why theirs so many bad drivers on the road... I started to think it was me an age thing thank you.
@@michaelbroderick527 When I started to drive , 1965, there were just over 10 million vehicles on Uk roads, now there are more than 33 million. There is a three fold increase in the chance of the driver being an idiot.
Like all digital cameras they are sensitive to infrared light, a few IR LED's around you number plate, and all the camera will pick up is white haze
Very good advice from a professional rider and driver. No offences in 21 years. Living in South Manchester. I have Mazda Radar Cruise Control that starts at 19 mph in my 73-plate CX-5. I have a Snooper and I know the allowances.
The accidents are happening because of target fixation of speed cameras. I have seen many and also another way around not getting caught is the amount that drive around with green P's on their junk vehicles; they're not registered at their home address and their manoeuvres are comical like we would see in a circus.
They drive through no entry signs, red lights, turn right where it is forbidden and ignore the white arrow blue background mandatory signs at pedestrian refuges.
May I point out? You failed to mention that these new cameras lock onto your vehicle for about 2 kilometres or 1.62 miles to catch speeding up after the cameras too.
I have been on the threshold many times except my exceptional riding and driving record speaks for itself.
I think your channel is very well presented and has a good variety of content.
Thank you for another importantly informative video.
Just goes to show how sad some people on earth are,imagine inventing that!
What motorists need is a gizmo with a live data base that can fit to EVERY car with audible alerts if overs the limit. Not sure if some up market cars have already got this. Sat Navs can alert you to the speed limit but are only useful if the database is up to date. Alternatively a speed camera alert system that detects the new cameras would be useful. Motorists need the technology to fight back.
Put Alexa in the car!
WAZE…!!! I also have an older Thinkware F800 Dual Camera Dash Cam installed in my 15 year old car. It constantly warns of speed cameras, mobile cameras and average speed cam zones. Waze will give you adequate warning of police mobile camera locations if configured properly. So far, so good. It also helps if you don’t drive it like you stole it in the first place! 😊👍🏾
Well said mate !
Season's Greetings Shaz. What a rollercoaster of a year. Many thanks for all that you do . Love the varied content. Hopefully next year things will get better. Much love from Launceston, Cornwall. 🎄🎶🕊🚘🚙🤩🙏🙏🙏
Thank you 🙏🏽☺️ So kind of you. Wish you and yours a Merry Christmas & and Happy New Year 🎅🏽🎄🎉
One useful thing I find for complying with 20 mph limits is to drop down to 2nd gear in my 5 speed manual car. The combination of a lower gear and slightly higher engine note help greatly. Similar principle to dropping down to 3rd gear for a 30 mph limit, with a few exceptions where 4th gear is fine. Obviously this will be different for different cars, automatics, EV's etc but even with automatics, you can use a lower gear hold. Another thing I find very useful is having a free GPS speedometer app on my phone, which I have mounted in my centre vent, displaying pretty accurately my speed in large digits.
You are wasting fuel dropping to a lower gear, and creating more pollution the 20mph limits are supposed to alleviate. Your GPS is neither accurate nor is it a legally recognised method of judging speed.
@@RedHotscotmost cars labour in 3rd at 20mph or 4th at 30mph. I find most vehicles don't like like 20mph or 30mph. I'm sure it's by design. And what is the best way of measuring speed if not GPS ?
By doing this you are using more fuel and pumping out more fumes. People need to just stop complying
positivity unwelcome
A six speed manual can usually cope well with 20 & 30mph in 3rd & 4th particularly if it's diesel. Your speedometer is the only legally recognised means of determining your speed. A GPS can't continually monitor your speed as it's relaying information and there are designed in micro breaks to alleviate channel congestion. It therefore has to algorithmically 'guess' your speed. GPS is also subject the prevailing signal strength available. If that's interrupted or fails you have lost your speedometer.@@chrishart8548
Some classics pre'65? do not require seat belts by law, I hope.that will be factored in? Probably not.
