Eric Pickles condemns motorists for passing speed cameras at 29.9mph
Communities Secretary Eric Pickles has denounced the behaviour of a majority of motorists when passing speed cameras as ‘fine dodgers’, saying they have a moral duty to man up, speed up and pay their fair share.
Pickles said that he wanted all motorists to pay £60 every time they passed a camera, helping to reduce the deficit, and that maintaining a speed just below the government-imposed threshold was reprehensible and undemocratic.
