Can you believe this crap???????
Speed cameras 'in right places'
In 2002-03 speed cameras raised ?73m
A review of the positioning of speed cameras has shown they are all in the right place, the government has said.
The review concluded that none of the new yellow cameras should be removed.
It said all but one police force would be in the Safety Camera Partnership - where fines go towards more cameras rather than the Treasury - by 2005.
Transport Minister David Jamieson told the BBC all partnerships had written in and: "The indications are that the cameras are in the right places."
There have been concerns at the siting of cameras, with some motorists complaining they are placed at the foot of steep hills, where it is difficult to keep to the speed limit.
Some groups have also complained that the cameras are a money-raising exercise for the Treasury.
In 2002-03, the camera partnerships received ?73m in fines, of which ?7m went to the Treasury.
The rest of the money is used for installing, operating and maintaining cameras.
More than 40 local authorities are now in the department's camera partnership.
