Thing about fixed speed cameras.......

They are usually bright yellow and easy to spot. I was caught by one. Conclusion is obvious to me - my forward vision scans were no way good enough or i'd have seen it and slowed down. What if said big yellow thing at side of road ( which i didn't see) had been a child running out or an person with dementia? I'd have missed them too i guess. Or hit them because i didn't see them.

Following a speed awareness course and some additional advanced driving training i now see speeding differently.

Observation is the vital element that needs to be top notch along with concentration. Eyes on main beam
