We know this is hardly the weather for it, but we’ve recently been thinking about Alton Towers and other theme parks. In particular, the rides that have a camera on a pole and take a photo of you as you whiz by. It costs about £5 to buy a photo of you looking wet and petrified.
In an attempt not to be outdone, the police will also happily take a photo of you as you whiz by their own cameras. The main difference is that they charge £60. Criminal!
The police call them ‘safety cameras’, and don’t we all feel much safer knowing that they’re there for our safety? The problem is we don’t think safety cameras are all they’re cracked up to be. Phil recently drove past one at 30mph with his head in a lion’s mouth, but he wasn’t flashed.
Rather than being about safety, we’re beginning to wonder if they’re actually speed-related.
Just a thought!
