Below you will find a series of sites relating to
UK driving, Government Policy and more. If you believe in safe driving,
a reasonable environment in which to drive, and paying a justifiable
amount for those privileges then take the time to look at these sites.
Association of British
Drivers UK
Campaigning for drivers rights in the UK to use the public highways. A
MUST see site.
Speed Cameras Dot
Org
We campaign to get the government and police to sensibly address
law enforcement on British roads and to adjust their policies to save
the most number of lives. Speed cameras and the Safety Camera
Partnerships are not the answer and do not work as the facts we present
here prove. We support the abolition of cash for
cameras schemes in the UK, the removal of speed cameras where accidents
have not decreased, and the refocusing of police resources to pursue the
real menaces of the road: uninsured, unlicensed, or drunk / drug drivers
and unregistered, untaxed, or poorly maintained vehicles.
UK Driving Secrets
EX-POLICEMAN REVEALS DRIVING LOOPHOLES YOU NEED
TO KNOW!
Every single day the police fine thousands upon
thousands of drivers throughout the UK for tiny offences. You may only be a
few miles above the limit on a totally empty motorway... but if you're
flashed, it means three points on your license and a hefty fine. After
twelve points, you're BANNED. Or, if you've been driving under two years,
it's just six points before you're off the road.
Is this making roads safer? Not in the
slightest. In the period from 1997 to 2000, revenue from motorist fines went
from £13 million to over £25 million. Yet road accidents during that period
increased.....
What would YOU do right now if your license
was revoked? How
would you SURVIVE?
Detect to Protect
Elwood Associates was originally formed in 1995 as an Electrical
Consultancy Agency, however in 2003 we changed direction to Detect2Protect,
selling licence protection and driver safety aids. Our aim is to provide the
best customer service, selling radar/laser and GPS detection products at the
best prices.
Drivers
Technology Association
To help the driver drive safely.
Today there are many pieces of technology to help the driver to
drive safely while still making fair progress. This website will help to
explain these products, the technology involved and some of the history of
development.
The Speedtrap Bible
The site was founded over five years ago to provide information to British
drivers on "Speeding" issues. It is the longest established and the
pre-eminent site of its kind on the Web. It receives over 4 million visits
from UK motorists per year. With over 1,000,000 UK motorists accused of
speeding last year and 3,400 speed camera's on UK roads - with plans to
triple the number - we trust that you will find the site useful. The Site
contains a vast amount of information (around 100 A4 pages) and will take
you a while to review it all.
UK Speedtrap
Guide
This site has the most up to date information on speeding enforcement
technology the British police use. Product tests with discount prices on
products agreed with suppliers. We set the standard others still try to
follow.
UK Gatsos
Up to date listing of camera locations, broken down by area.
PEPIPOO.COM
MISSION. To reveal to the ordinary UK motorist, clearly and
concisely, how the police and judiciary deal with allegations of speeding in
real life, and to provide the information motorists need to defend
themselves.
Physics of Speed
How fast? How far? How quickly? Measuring and referring to speed is
common place - in fact so common that we scarcely give it a second thought.
How long will it take to get from one place to another, how fast can we
travel on a motorway, how far will a plane get in three hours?
Road Supervisors Network
Purpose of this website is to outline a Road
Safety Concept which has the potential to significantly reduce the
Accident Rate by utilizing the power of the Internet... to harness the
Skills and Knowledge of our greatest untapped asset... Experienced
Drivers. This website aims to Develop: Refine: and Promote the Concept
further as part of an On-going: Interactive Project... open to anyone
interested in helping to develop.
UK Speed Cameras
News and links related to Speed cameras and other driving issues.
Speed Limit
Promoting better, safer roads and sensible traffic law enforced with
discretion
Fuel Protest
The car is replacing the cigarette as the main tax crop. If the Government
really wanted to cut the number of cars on the road they know as well as
anybody that a cheap and reliable alternative is needed to entice the
motorists out of their cars.
Safe Speed Campaign
Safe Speed believes firmly in improved road safety. We do not campaign
against speed limits or speed limit enforcement. We are not anti-police. We
are not "pro speeding". We believe
that excessive speed limit enforcement by dumb robots actually makes
the roads more dangerous. We believe that inappropriate speed for
the conditions is a vital road safety issue that is exacerbated by excessive
emphasis on speed limit compliance.
Roadsense Australia
Showing the speed camera as a worldwide problem, here is a site from
Australia.
No
Congestion Charge
Site protesting the congestion charge with petitions and more. |
