Speed cameras how does work

    With modern cars becoming increasingly powerful, it's easy to achieve speeds where you need to pay particular attention to the prevailing limit. Many driving locations, particularly in urban areas or near accident black spots, now have average speed monitoring equipment in action. But how does it work?

Panalty could serve to Parents if they drop their children by Car

    Children are heading back to school this week, and Croydon Council is taking that opportunity to experiment with ways to tackle school run congestion. The latest scheme uses automatic number plate recognition to set up exclusion zones around three southeast London primary schools, where parents will face a £130 fine if they enter to drop their children off. The exclusion zones will cover drop-off and pick-up times from 8am until 9:30am, and then again from 2pm to 4pm. Residents and their visitors will be able to apply for permits but anybody else driving through will receive a £65 fine, rising to £130 after 14 days. Blue Badge holders are exempt from the scheme. The scheme will be in place for six months initially, and if it proves successful in cutting congestion around s...
