More Box Junction and Bus Lane Cameras

 

More of these may be a good thing in that they speed traffic flow. On the other hand the only box junction I use regularly outside of London, at the bottom of the Huntingdon Road in Cambridge is very well observed, so would hardly be a money maker for the council.

I have only ever been caught by a box junction camera once and that was a few years ago in London. Despite asking for the driver's name, I never received anything more and so never paid the fine.

Perhaps, as I have proposed for parking fines, the fines should be raised and then you are able to claim one a year back, when you tax your car. That would have the desired deterrent affect, but wouldn't adversely affect the pockets of responsible drivers.
