The fact that you still have people who do the 40km/h or higher over speed limit in known speed traps shows that you do need the cops to patrol that area. |
I just think that it is better policy to make all drivers paranoid that they'll get busted, as a means to prevent dangerous speeding in the first place.
If you tell drivers that there is a speed trap along a dangerous stretch of road, they won't speed. I think that is much more preferable over just letting them speed in the first place and potentially causing an accident for the sake of generating some ticket revenue.
