People like speed cameras - for everyone else

According to a survey by the Institute of Advanced Motorists (IAM), 82 per cent of people now think it is acceptable for authorities to use speed cameras.

However 45 per cent think that raising income is still a main reason for their use, according to the results of the IAM's annual speed camera survey. Interestingly, the more prevalent speed cameras are in a given region, the less popular they are with local people.
