re: bad press..speed cameras lie.. dct - dont know much at all what you do and dont claim it - merely mentioning that very important and far reaching govt policy is being made on not very robust scientific data - I have had the unfortunate duty to sack people who have lost their license - the govt ruins people's lives for travelling at 70knh in a 60 zone - or in one case 100knh in a 60 road work zone - no work been carried out of course! (100m in)
This is done without any significant proof that it is saving any lives whatsoever. The road toll slowly declines with improving vehicle safety less drink driving, more use of air for long transport- drivers are still as dumb as ever and when that is fixed then it will decline more. Vic is getting insane with speeding with no effect on the road toll but plenty of ruined newly unemployed families out there.
I know i will not convince anybody that they are possibly biased by virtue of their employ- it took a couple of years for me to realise.

ps - speed differentials were proven causes of accidents in Canada I think - 20 under or over had the same impact on crashes - not usually found though, because the car overtaking is the one in the accident -
