Yay for speeding cams!
Oh rly? I thought it should be yay for public transport (especially trams, trains and subway). A (wishfully) cheap, prdictably fast, safe way of going from A to B without having to spend countless zombie hours behind a wheel. It's no secret that humans are really shitty at car driving, cameras or no cameras, because they are prone to routine and miscalculation. When something moves on rails, a lot of automation can remove the human factor more easily, in b4 google car.
You use a car because you want to get somewhere fast, and there is no better alternative. Instead of making the car slower, find a better solution.
Also, what you really wanna measure is inappropriate behaviour combined with speeding that can cause accidents, and get those particular drivers off the road. And for that, dash cams are much better.
