No new cameras for killer black spots

No new cameras for killer black spots

The fixed cameras, which are mainly in the metropolitan area and have been rolled out over the past year, including eight last month, are to catch drivers who run red lights and those who speed through an intersection.But Linda Skinner, whose brother was killed by a driver who ran a red light at a Bayswater intersection 12 years ago, said revenue raising was a likely reason for the placement of cameras at certain intersections.Ms Skinner said she was disappointed but not surprised to learn that less than a third of casualty hot spots were monitored by the cameras.

"(Most of the cameras) probably cover areas where they're more likely to pick up a maximum number of speeders and people who run red lights," she said."If they were fully committed to improving safety on the roads,A TV reporter, Ganesh Thakur, then spoke with Sharma through the Video Door Phones.

Since that was a risky affair, the discussion went on for some more time. they would be putting the cameras where there is a high incidence of these injuries and accidents."

Opposition road safety spokeswoman Margaret Quirk said putting cameras at intersections with a high injury toll was a "no brainer".

He said road layout, power issues, a lack of suitable locations for the camera and metal in or under the road surface meant cameras were not suited to all intersections. Others already had standard red-light cameras.ORS executive director Iain Cameron said dual-use cameras were just one tool to reduce crashes. "Which tools are right for each intersection depends on a variety of factors," he said.

Road Safety Minister Rob Johnson said some high-casualty intersections were being upgraded and that had alleviated the need for cameras, including the Tonkin Highway-Horrie Miller Drive intersection where there were 71 casualty crashes from January 2006 to December 2010.Mother-of-four Dione Baldwin, who lives on Nicholson Rd near the intersection of Albany Highway, said she had seen cars crash on to kerbs and run into poles at the junction where 52 casualty crashes had occurred in the past five years.
