Thumbs up, Sweden!

Swedes love rules and regulation, and I have to say I was a little surprised to read that, contrary to the Great Britain, they seem to have scrapped their plans of a Orwellian nightmare of monitoring all motorist all the time.

In fact, it was announced on a conference in the city of Linköping today that the speed cameras used today are effective enough, and that heavier surveillance would cause a lack of respect for the cameras, and would be considered too intrusive.

Two thumbs up for Sweden on this one.

Still; a major "fuck off" to Sweden for installing the cameras in the first place...
