>>>I heard India. Of course we better. Some people claim our problem is about education. But I don't think so. I see a lot of educated crazy drivers at my country. Our traffic police likes bribe, our traffic laws has so soft penalties. I think so that's the problem. Our laws requires warning signs for radar and traffic cameras. What silly laws... Who would be drive fast if there's a radar warning? If you know where's radar you just drive slow at radar areas. If you know where ara cameras you just drive correct at camera areas.

This is where the replacement of police with speed traps falls down. An unregistered uninsured driver can drive at whatever speed and as unsafely as they like. They aren't on the system so there is no sanction.
