‘Endemic’ speeding

Dear Editor:

There seems to be no end to the letters complaining about speed cameras in Fergus.

It merely proves how endemic the speeding problem has got  when people complain about being caught. They try to call it by different names, other than breaking the law and being fined.

Dave Adsett’s editorial (Reel it in, Aug. 14) merely reminds us that bureaucrats never seem to get things quite right. Photo radar certainly makes drivers sweat, but does not really go far enough.

The radar units should be mobile and operating night and day at different locations around the town. As offenders improved their driving skills, or ran out of money, you would begin see a whole new world evolve, where calmness and safety would prevail everywhere.
