1984 Arrives Later Than Expected

Surveillance on drivers may be increased Cameras could be used to catch those ignoring phone and seat belt laws Duncan Campbell and Rob EvansTuesday March 7, 2006The Guardian
Drivers talking on mobile phones or failing to wear seatbelts could find themselves tracked down through a widened use of road surveillance cameras, under proposals due to be floated in parliament tomorrow. The plans would form part of a major expansion of camera surveillance which critics say is already transforming Britain into the most watched country in the world.
The case for cameras to be focused on people using mobiles as they drive is made by the independent adviser to the transport select committee, Robert Gifford, of the Parliamentary Advisory Council for Transport Safety (Pacts).

The UK it appears is about to become a police state with these surveillance cameras. In this country more and more cities are installing the cameras and its all money driven. Companies want to sell the cameras and after cities buy them they want to enhance their revenues by watching more people and apprehending people violating petty laws.

I despise these cameras with a passion. People who will trade what they perceive as more security for less liberty and freedom make my eyes water. We need less government in our everyday lives not more.
