Confused...

Something that really makes me laugh (and confuses the heck out of me) is the way people get really annoyed at the police for deploying speed cameras, saying that the police are 'revenue raising'.

Am I missing something here? People drive cars, right? And they can drive their cars at varying speeds... some cars can go really fast, some cars can't go so fast (like trucks, etc.). Also, depending on how fast you are driving, you have a varying possibility that you might have an accident. People who drive faster are more likely to have an accident (a generalisation of course), and most definately do more damage to whatever they hit (and themselves) when they do have an accident. Therefore, instead of people flying around the streets smashing into things all the time and killing lots of people, we have speed limits. So that people abide by these limits, there is a reasonable penalty for breaking them. If you don't break them, you don't get a penalty.

Here comes the clincher...

Therefore, if you get a speeding ticket IT'S YOUR OWN DAMN FAULT!!! For goodness' sake! If you don't want a fine, DON'T SPEED!!! Why are people so bleeding STUPID?!?! AARRGGHHH!!!!
