It was on the news today that Swindon is getting rid of speed cameras to save money.

Funny, if you google it, they were talking about getting rid of them in 2008 - maybe it's just talk?

they got rid a year ago

and funny thing is - accident rate has remained the same since they went....


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...
