Plethora of speed cameras M5 Gordano south / Clevedon north

[Anonymous]

Locals and visitors, be careful in the road works Gordano to Clevedon both ways, I've never seen so many in such a short stretch. All high level digital ones.

There must be a collective noun for so many speed cameras...

(note yet again I have no idea of the junction numbers :lol: )

Have they activated them yet? The last 3 times I went through there they were all still wrapped.
That said, there seem to be alot of patrol cars on the M5 recently, as well.

Last time I went through they were wrapped, but going over the bridge today I see they had started coning so soon if not already. Its going on well in 2006 anyhow :roll:

There were lots of cones out before last weekend.

[Carsick]

The ones we've mentioned on the M5, before the toll booths on the M4 then there might still be roadworks before cardiff on the M4, though it's been a while since I've gone that far along, so a local will know better.

[Carsick]

If you go on the M5, I would stay at the limit, but I've never had any problems on the M4 outside of Wiltshire.

must be nice to live in a crime free area where they can now concentrate on the less important tasks of collecting revenue for the goverment, seeing as all the real criminals are locked away! :?

IIRC Avon & Somerset constab have an 18% arrest rate i.e. if you commit a crime, then you've got an 82% chance that they'll never touch you for it.

In our local paper the other week Wiltshire constab were praised for being one of the best in the country: 30% arrest rate i.e. if you comit a crime, then there's a 70% chance that they'll never touch you for it. That's supposed to be good FFS?

I thought that the revenue from speed cameras went to that county's police. I could be wrong of course. :?
