This category contains web sites that discuss the use of speed cameras on roads in the UK. Speed cameras are placed by the side of roads, usually those where cars are often travelling faster than the signed speed limit, or where those were accidents are common, and take pictures of those cars that are breaking the law by driving too fast. The owners of these cars are then traced and are issued fines. The subject is very controversial as many groups oppose cameras, claiming that they are merely there to generate revenue for the police and government.
