“some claim they are just one more source of income for authorities rather than a security or environmental measure”

And yes, they are correct.

its great that they are blowing them up, action like that is needed to defend rights sometimes, its not like anyone is getting hurt.

These boxes, or Gatsometers as they are called here, are very common in the Netherlands. There's a road nearby where I live where you can find five gatsometers on a 6 mile stretch of road (on google maps: http://tinyurl.com/5by5o2).

They do seem to be a very effective way to make drivers slow down to at least the speed limit.

Show the money grubbing politicians where they can shove their speed cameras.

I too agree, I'm glad they are standing up for some sense of what little freedom we have left and not accepting, blindly, every rediculous fine thrown at us.

It is government greed when speed radars and cameras are installed but it is your inherent right-of-man to drive on government built roads? Hmmmm... somewhat strange train of logic don't you think? No one said you had to drive a car. Feel free to cycle, walk or ride a horse. Since you claim to be defenders of freedom in the libertarian sense, let's extend the libertarian analogy a little more. Roads should be privately owned instead of state provided infrastructure and those who use roads should pay whatever rate the owner deems fair. How does that sound?

I wish they did that in America. In all serouness those speed cameras are serous revenue and it annoys the hell out of me when politicians put these up just to get more tickets. So to hear something that stand out against it is fantastic. For the record those speed cameras cost around 1200 dollars a peace so eventually they will stop putting them up if they keep getting destroyed

Ok, so everybody seems to think Speed camera's are there just to get the government money... I hate these things too, but I rather have the speeders pay for that extra money the government needs or wants, instead of having another generic tax everybody has to pay to cover whatever needed.

Vive la Revolution, indeed.

Every once in a great while, the French come through like champions.

Bless 'em.

It would be a money-grabbing scheme if these cameras weren't ANNOUNCED before. And they are. In that case, it is a very effective way to slow traffic down. If you can't even get yourself to slow down to LEGAL speeds after being warned that there was a traffic camera in exactly 1 km then you should pay for it, big time.
