The FFMC notes inconsistencies in the government’s discourse

While Dominique Bussereau has just publicly considered the removal of signs indicating fixed speed cameras, the FFMC believes that "the hypocrisy of these slot machines is coming to light: it is a question of trapping road users".

After "the personal question" of Dominique Bussereau, estimating on the channel Public Senate that it would perhaps be necessary to "remove" the signs announcing the presence of a fixed speed camera (read), the French Federation of angry motorcyclists (FFMC ) denounces "inconsistencies in the government’s discourse".

"While the automatic radars continue to flash vehicles briskly (nearly 3.5 million infringements noted in 2006 and more than 8 million points withdrawn) that does not yet seem enough for the government", regrets the defense association bikers.

Recalling that these radars were according to the government to be "prevention tools in order to slow down motorists", the FFMC believes that with this announcement, "the hypocrisy of these slot machines comes to light: it is indeed to trap road users, to bring in the money and no longer to slow down traffic ".

"The removal of signs will strengthen economic discrimination in the face of the sanction between those who have the means to have the necessary equipment (GPS, radar information, internet subscription) and others who cannot", adds the FFMC, wondering " where is the equal treatment "…

"These announcements do not bode well", concludes the association, because "if the decisions will undoubtedly wait for the summer period (and the results of the legislative elections), it is regrettable that the road users continue to be the cash cows of a transport system becoming more and more openly repressive day after day ".
