Investigate effects of speeding cameras
Do speeding cameras really decrease the risk of accidents? Because what I have noticed in many EU countries, is that people suddenly brake when seeing a camera, causing danger to the cars behind and to themselves. Especially dangerous and frustrating is that many drivers slow down way beyond the legal limit, for example slowing down to 70km/h on a street where 90km/h is allowed, causing traffic and possibly dangers to others. On top of this, I would assume that this has negative effects on the environment, braking and speeding up unnecessarily, which surely causes more pollution if done en masse. With this request, I would like to suggest that a study be undertaken to investigate both the safety risks of speeding cameras and the pollution around them as compared to other sections of the road where there are no cameras. Furthermore, many speed limits in Europe have been set at a time when cars' safety features and braking distances were far inferior to those of most modern cars. Therefore it might also be beneficial to investigate if current speed limits should maybe be increased on certain open roads, to decrease the time that people spend in their car, which could decrease tiredness behind the wheel.
