I see SafeSpeed gets the last word:

Quote:
Claire Armstrong, co-founder of Safe Speed, said: “When the attitude of the police is to enforce on the basis of funding their force, then we have lost all sight of road safety.”

I would interpret this as more of a demand for funding than a serious proposal, but it underlines how invidious the whole idea of profiting from law enforcement is.
