Most useless speed camera in Britain flashes just once in a year

There are more than 4,000 fixed Gatso speed cameras across this great nation of ours and none so useless as that situated on Rhiwbina Hill in Cardiff.

While across their patch South Wales Police netted more than £700,000 in fines from speeding motorists caught by a total of 89 cameras in 2009, including those from 6,657 drivers caught on their cash machine camera along the M4 near Cardiff, this single camera on Rhiwbina Hill flashed just once.
