總體分析
本文講述了英國車速監(jiān)控攝像體系擴(kuò)張計劃的內(nèi)容及影響,著重闡述了這一計劃的支持者(警察和財政部門)和反對者(機(jī)動車管理機(jī)構(gòu))的觀點(diǎn)。
全文翻譯
一旦擴(kuò)大車速監(jiān)控攝像體系,這個國家財政部每年就能從罰款中額外增加2000萬收入。機(jī)動車管理機(jī)構(gòu)警告說這種罰款可能變成對汽車征收的人頭稅,從而疏遠(yuǎn)很多駕駛者。也可能出現(xiàn)更多破壞攝像機(jī)的事件。警告出現(xiàn)的同時,《每日郵報》的調(diào)查發(fā)現(xiàn)英格蘭和威爾士的23支警力幾乎都有所行動,不是致力于部署監(jiān)控體系的擴(kuò)張計劃,就是在考慮加入其中。
預(yù)計(在實施監(jiān)控系統(tǒng)后)全國范圍內(nèi)違章超速行駛的罰單數(shù)量會增加兩倍,罰金數(shù)目一年達(dá)9000萬。按照計劃,警察保留一部分罰金用以支付安裝和維修新攝像機(jī)的費(fèi)用,并且保證現(xiàn)有的攝像機(jī)中總是裝有膠卷。其余的罰金將上繳財政部。財政部長們和警察都堅持認(rèn)為該計劃的目的是提高公路的安全性。他們指出八個試點(diǎn)地區(qū)撞車事故減少了四分之一,嚴(yán)重傷亡事故減少至一半。
但是機(jī)動車管理機(jī)構(gòu)擔(dān)心警察為了多開罰單會把攝像機(jī)裝在相對安全但行車速度較快的直行道上,還會為車速監(jiān)控攝像機(jī)設(shè)置最低合法車速標(biāo)準(zhǔn),如把正常的每小時10英里限速提高到每小時15英里,每小時20英里限速提高到每小時26英里。這樣做會使司機(jī)盯著自己的里程計而不把精力集中到路面上,從而引發(fā)更多的交通事故。英國皇家汽車俱樂部(RAC)活動負(fù)責(zé)人休。尼科爾森說,嚴(yán)格上說,我們對車速監(jiān)控攝像機(jī)并無意見,我們擔(dān)憂的是它們被安放的地點(diǎn)。如果把監(jiān)控攝像機(jī)視為(政府)聚斂財政收入的手段而不是安全設(shè)施,那么警察就可能喪失他們在駕駛者心目中的威信?
