Protest over M4 cameras

The latest speed camera crackdown on the M4 is a step too far as far as thousands of motorists are concerned. It’s inspired a massed go-slow protest on the motorway planned for April 30.

Organisers hope the protest – to which bikes and cars are welcome – will show politicians just how angry the public have become about the over- use of speed cameras – just in time for the general election.

Campaign founder, Robin Summerhill said: “After £700 million pounds of speed camera fines, road deaths are going up, yet the greedy camera partnerships simply keep expanding, placing more and more cameras. The motoring public is at breaking point and something has to give. I believe it is important that the entire ethos of speed cameras in the UK is re-examined from the very foundations.”

The protests will start at 10am on Saturday April 30 at either end of the affected section of the M4 (Junction 14-17) and then head towards each other taking up all lanes at a slow speed, hopefully causing huge jams.
