"The Government are making a fortune out of the decent motorist"

If you're a decent motorist and you don't want to contribute towards the Partnership scheme, the answer is very simple:

Pay attention to the speed limits
Drive at an appropriate speed for the conditions and your surroundings
Don't speed past camera sites or go through red traffic lights– they're both there to prevent crashes
Don't think it'll never happen to you: more than 36,000 people are injured in speed-related crashes each year– that's one person every 15 minutes.
