Ulez: More than 300 cameras damaged or stolen in four months
Ulez: More than 300 cameras damaged or stolen in four months
Unofficial data mapping the damage to cameras suggests almost 500 have been vandalised or stolen.
Selfish behaviour, wasting public money because they don't like a scheme created to improve the health of normal Londoners.
I hope they'll just be repaired, I'd imagine people won't keep doing it for that long, only at the moment because it's new. Eventually they'll become used to it.
Why do you want surveillance cameras?
Why do you support people spewing PM2.5 particulates?
How else do you propose to run the ULEZ system bar toll booths all over London to pay at as you drive?
So you want to get people become used to surveillance? Keep in mind that 1984 was a warning, not a handbook.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
More than 300 cameras installed for London's Ultra Low Emission Zone (Ulez) were vandalised or stolen between April and August, the BBC can reveal.
TfL is planning to install a total of 2,750 cameras before the expansion comes into force at the end of August.
Abbie Mires, who works in the area, said the "harsh action" of targeting Ulez cameras was justified.
Husband and wife, Roy and Linda McKensie had to get rid of two cars ahead of the Ulez expansion, but said they did not agree with cameras being tampered with.
The only figure the BBC has seen was an estimate cost of the planned expansion from November 2022, which was about £159.5m based on assumptions at that time.
This includes spend for systems design, development and testing; on-street infrastructure design, procurement and delivery including camera installation and signage; marketing and media campaign; and legal and consultation costs.
I'm a bot and I'm open source!
This is literally the only crime London prosecutors will go after LOL
Good, I hope they keep getting destroyed. The government should not be spying on their own citizens
ULEZ is about health. If the fumes from the car is so healthy, please show me the data that supports that.
The idiots destroying this cameras will be paying more in council tax to replace them. That really sounds like an intelligent approach.
How else do you practically propose to run ULEZ?
You don't. Civil disobedience is fine for Extinction Rebellion and Just Stop Oil, but not for this?
Keep pumping particulates into your children's lungs
