Drive against speed fines

A CAMPAIGN group yesterday protested against a speed camera that nets about £1.3 million a year in fines - despite there being just one serious injury on the road since 1999.

An average 1,843 motorists a month are each hit with a 60 ticket after being caught over the 30mph limit on a dual carriageway in Poole, Dorset.

Road safety action group Dorset Speed said the fines were dished out despite the fact that there had been only one serious injury in 11 years.
