Speed cameras are increasing the risk of a fatal or serious accident in some areas, a study suggests.

A UK study here: http://www.thenewspaper.com/news/06/602.asp

It shows that injury accidents increased 31 percent when speed cameras were used on freeways, and they increased 55 percent when used in freeway work zones. When the researchers who were commissioned to study the effects of cameras in construction zones came up with these results, the UK government did everything in its power to prevent the data from ever seeing the light of day. After all, they make about 700 million pounds (a billion US dollars) yearly from the machines.
