Lazarus Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 "Devils Advocate" But it does prove that the Canadian Police are targeting the people that speed in the worst possible place ie Urban areas, for all we know that could be just outside a school entrance (where I'm pretty sure the majority of us wouldn't condone speeding). What I object to is the cameras being used out on the open road in places where there has been no history of accident or injury and claiming that they're "Safety Cameras". Errr!...No!...You're just trying to make cash! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 The green faces are because you've linked from another site. People don't like this as you're using their bandwidth up to show other people photos. So the webserver detects this and replaces the image with the green smiley.

Marco Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 Are you sure it's from canada? I've seen pictures like these before from Holland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 Hmm bet that will be successful, unless they have people watching them, which defeats the object, they will get turned round or tipped over. GPS wont help with these. Let hope some civilservant does not see this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dangerous brain Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 I'm seeing both green faces and the pictures. I'll go with the line of thought that if these are used outside schools and in heavy urbanised area then its fair game. Problem is when the money starts rolling in the ethics of use go out the window. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnA Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 ..I'll go with the line of thought that if these are used outside schools and in heavy urbanised area then its fair game. . This line of thought doesn't make money though. Such areas will be prone to vandalism and there are only so many schools around. Plus people tend to be careful around schools, that's bad for profits.
