Bakewell Bridge speed camera labelled a 'cash cow'

Family First MP Robert Brokenshire says the Glover Ave camera's location - aimed at the down track of the Bakewell Underpass - is all about revenue raising and not road safety, after it caught the second-highest number of motorists in Adelaide.He fears the next eight fixed roadside cameras to be installed could also be positioned to maximise revenue instead of minimising road accidents.

The Glover Ave camera, which became operational on May 28, caught 7469 speeding vehicles in its first year of operation, according to the latest police figures.Mr Brokenshire said there was no evidence the section of Glover Ave, where the fixed roadside camera is located, was a traffic accident black spot.The site did not appear on a list of the top 10 black spots for 2008-10, which was obtained from the Transport Department by Mr Brokenshire under Freedom of Information laws.

"The camera is aimed at traffic as it travels on the down slope into the underpass because that is where motorists are most likely to unintentionally creep over the speed limit," he said.Mr Brokenshire said this month's $50 increase in traffic fines, which the State Government estimates will raise an extra $15 million a year,Its avoidance is the biggest problem facing any gadget nerd. This affliction, this curse that disables so many would-be tablet and infant video monitor buyers, only intensifies for those of us who somehow manage to procreate. gives motorists more reason to be cynical about the purpose of some speed cameras.

He said only four of the 10 accident black spots correlated with the top speed camera sites.Road Safety Minister Tom Kenyon yesterday said the Glover Ave camera was erected after a survey in 2008 showed 58 per cent of all traffic heading down into the underpass was travelling over the speed limit.The U.S. government has sued a former NASA astronaut to recover a mini dv video camera used to explore the moon's surface during the 1971 Apollo 14 mission after seeing it slated for sale in a New York auction."The Bakewell Bridge site has appropriate signage warning drivers that a fixed speed camera is operating at the site," Mr Kenyon said."My message to Mr Brokenshire and all drivers is simple: `If you don't want to get caught speeding,You can keep them with you for long periods of refrigerant and they would provide you with the same new look every time. don't speed'."
