Jeremy Clarkson on Speed Cameras/Limits Compilation

An hour of Clarkson complaining about speed cameras and speed limits.
As you can probably tell, this took quite a while to make.

only used clips from tg/tgt/home videos, no apperances on other shows.

Bless you, sir. This is no longer a video, it’s a documentary.

How you know a man hates something: he has an hour long compilation of him hating on them on YouTube

Clarkson: "you can't crash when you're stationery"

Hammon: "is that a challenge"

[TheAlbumGuy]

All common complaints toward speed cameras and roadworks aside, you can completely understand Jeremy's distaste for them. In 1994 (just before speed cameras were common place), he had to drive as fast as he could from London to Sheffield to say goodbye to his father before he died. Imagine trying to do something like that now. There's a large likelihood that you wouldn't make it.

You could tell Clarkson had been waiting for decades to rile up a crowd of Scots with a Braveheart speech.

People who drive 10ks under speed are Just as dangerous as people who speed change my mind

21:57 Clarkson claims that Hammond is better than him at punching people

[ChequeTwice]

Germany has proved it, speed has nothing to do with road deaths. Incompetence on the other hand..

[zanemurcha]

How they agreed to get John Prescott on Top Gear after bashing him so hard on that show for over 10 years, is something I'll never know.

24:33, the well renowned quote of Jeremy Clarkson

[randomlyentertaining]

About the Autobahn

I remember reading that the accident rate for the Autobahn is lower than that of roads that do have speed limits because drivers, knowing that cars can go pass them at 150 MPH or more at any moment, are more alert and attentive.

Every time they had a government representative on the show to talk about speed cameras and speed limits it becomes incredibly obvious they've never watched Top Gear. Jeremy had repeatedly brought up different studies and research statistics that disproved every single thing the government reps say. The government reps in this compilation all say something to the effect of "every study shows that speed cameras reduce accidents" despite constant evidence that accidents either remained constant or went up.

Speed cameras exist for one reason and one reason alone, tax revenue. That is reason enough to get rid of them. Anything that is done for the sole purpose of stealing people's hard earned money is government endorsed extortion.

A camera went off on the M4 near me when I was travelling in November. I wasn't speeding, but as a severely anxious person - it hit me like a train. This video was actually a comfort in the weeks after. Thank you team.

[DoomieGruntVentures]

As an American, I gotta chastize the boys for being such goody two-shoes on our roads. More often than not, you can get away with going well over the speed limit, and only really have to worry about traffic flow, big cities, and small towns. While some areas do have speed cameras, most of the cameras out there are for simple monitoring for traffic alerts. Don't let the hall monitors scare you. Just pay attention, don't crash, and try not to be an arse.

Except in Arkansas. Don't cock around in Arkansas.

Although its good to see they found workarounds in later episodes.

17:53 the “Cube Their Heads” conversation is probably one of my top 5 TGNews discussions ever

Also, 24:31 legendary quote here

[Oscarrobson]

For some reason I have just sat through all of this not questioning my choices it was amazing

The bloke who stole the speed cam van's plates is exactly the hero we need, but don't deserve.

18:57 - In many cases it is actually illegal for traffic control companies to have signs displayed when no workers are on site . . . at least here in Australia that is the case. But that does depend on the state of the road surface aswell.
