Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

III Tipper drivers in North Yorkshire sent speeding tickets after local police mounted a hidden radar trap on a quarry approach have complained they have been unfairly targeted as part of the Government's attack on speeding drivers. A spokesman for the traffic police says they are under no obligation to stop vehicles after catching them in speed traps. He adds that sometimes they deliberately avoid pulling vehicles over, to prevent other drivers being warned by CB radio. E The DOT has launched a television and poster campaign "Speed Kills" but says it will be left to individual police forces to decide whether to step up

enforcement.
