Cars do crash, maim and kill, and about half the casualties are completely innocent. This includes young children. Funnily enough many people do have strong views about this, especially if they have actually seen the effects. To impute that these concerns are nothing more than corporate PR, as your red light camera opponents do, is obscene. The nub of this argument is what civilisation is all about. Roads do not exist soley for Ben Brunk's enjoyment. He has to share them with 250 million other people. It's called civilisation.
