Bad.
They're for revenue.
Not safety.

Good because they catch assholes. Bad because they catch speeding assholes like me.

Bad, you're always looking at your speed, not the road when going past. Thank God In NSW there's about 3 signs telling you there's one before you get to it.

Neutral.
They are for controlling speeding.
They are not plugged in.

No

U sound mad?

>>5573894
Because then the system would be way more complicated than what it already is. You'd have to assign ways to identify what cars have special licensing to go faster. If you're licensed to speed, but your car with it's tags is in the shop, you're stuck going slower and your license isn't worth shit.

There'd be no easy or cheap way for any government to make this work.

Easy way to make shit work:
Adopt German Autobahn laws
?????
Profit

No you're mad

aint even mad bro

Bad, strictly revenue raising, speaking from an Aussie standpoint.

Anyone who speeds will know where they are, or have a GPS that tells you your coming upto one. You slow down, pass through it, and speed back up again. EVERYBODY fucking does it.

Also, how is it stopping speeding at the time? You speed, get hit by a camera, and crash 2 minutes down the road, WELL GOLLY IT'S GOOD THAT CAMERA WAS THERE TO STOP YOU! It's revenue raising, a fine in the mail three weeks later is not stopping speed, it's pointing out idiots who can't see them coming.

i'm against current speed limit laws because they are counter intuitive and take/keep the average driver's eyes off the road and on their dash.

I am in many ways a Classical Liberal on things like these: i don't believe in preventionism because it punishes those who are innocent of harm. I believe in harsher punishment for those proven guilty of causing harm or recklessly endangering. (This is an underlying philosophy which i believe would change the world for the very very better.)

Speeding does not necessarily equal recklessly endangering or threatening harm. The amount of times we've all gone a bit or a lot over when we were absolutely sure of the safety of that overaction, after consideration, and with constant situational awareness..

What the fuck /o/?

I live in the US and my city is planning on putting up speed cams.
I wanted to see what you guys think about speed cams.
I wasn't looking for an uk vs us thread. Go to >>/int/

>>5573988
your question was answered (correctly) in the very first response.

>>5573988
Welcome to /o/
My name's Brosifine.
Pic related, me.

Short answer: maybe

Long answer: it heavily depends on their location and regulations governing their use

>>5574058
You couldn't get away with that here.
>Police dash cams read and run all plates they see
You would drive maybe a week before getting pulled over, arrested and your car impounded over not paying a 90 dollar ticket.

But if they put them up here you can bet your ass I'd tear them all down.

>>5574063
Well the police department wasn't in charge of handling the speed cams so I guess that's why people got away with it

>>5574084
The police department isn't in charge of a lot of things.
Such as collecting on tickets in general.
Hell the DMV isn't even in charge of revoking your license.
The Department of Revenue does that.

>America
>How does it work

Think this video explains how we feel about speedcameras in Finland

>Turn speed camera thread into a America vs. Euroderp thread

>Disregard fact that Arizona has Speed Cameras for every 10 miles of highway.

Lol sure is newfag in here.

>>5576562
Yea, and they're not working.... so they're taking them out.

They couldn't serve people the tickets.

>>5576570
Never said they were good. They're horrible. Same with red light cameras. Those things cause more accidents than they prevent.

I'm just saying Arizona was retarded enough to put them up.

>>5576570
I remember that story about a town installed traffic cameras, and somehow everyone agreed not to pay the fines, so they had to have them removed.

>Rear end of car covered in snow
>lol red light camera
>Take vehicle past said camera at excessive speed / sideways through the intersection
>FLASH!
>u maf cuz you can't see my plates? Yeah u maf bro.

Great fun in the winter.
