what happened in '84?

I think Geoffrey's referring to the book "1984" of George Orwell. Big brother 'n' stuff.

I don't see how adding a speedcam which verifies you don't do 180 km/u has anything to do with total control of all other aspects;)

It's a start. Having unmanned camera's everywhere is only a small step from having trackers in each car to see where you are.

We only need one big terrorist attack for governments to abandon the laws of privacy. They'll probably use the "we need to protect society"-argument again ... ;)

they don't need camera's for that MM, your cellphone is all they need;)

Yes? So they have multiple solutions?

speedcams are nothing but poles with a box on it in which cops can place camera's, most of the speedcameras are empty.

Friend of mine got a €50 fine for parking his car facing the wrong direction. Small note, he parked his car in a one-way street, where 15 meters of road is still two-way, guess where he had parked his car ?
Next time he went to that street he noticed that all cars on that 15 meter of road got fined :no: .

take a picture of the location with your car parked, include it in the envelope and fight the ticket, with proper documentation you have a case

***** less, benchmark more :)

Every time my wife goes to Aalst, she brings back a 15 euro fine :p

you have a good wife, at least she brings home something for you...
