Driving on the A68 last week I noticed that every safe place to overtake has a speed camera on it.
Every unsafe place - where you suddenly find yourself facing someone in your lane on a blind corner - doesn't have a camera near it.
Hmmm. Safety ?
Or revenue ?

You may like this incisive view from (I think) Johnny Vaugn who is not a figure of high culture here but did well with this :
Quote:
Being British is about driving in a German car to an Irish pub for a Belgian beer, then travelling home and grabbing an Indian curry or a Turkish kebab on the way, to sit on Swedish furniture and watch American shows on a Japanese TV.
And the most British thing of all?
Suspicion of anything foreign.
