These cameras are charging gas cars that are older than 2006 and diesel cars older than 2015, 15€ a day due to new emission laws.

Uuuugh. I don’t necessarily disagree with what they’re doing but i fricking HATE when my generation comes up with cringe arse group names based off movies.

It’s easy to tell whoever is doing it are millennials based off that alone


Good job not getting lost in the details and focusing on the important part of the story.

Also, your gripe is mildly amusing considering your user name, there, Indiana.

Blade runners is fine, though some variation of the bastards / Basterds has a lot of potential.

If I had photoshop skills, I'd replace the nazi head with a camera...

There’s a lot of minority and ethnic neighborhoods with black pins.

Good for the immigrants sticking up for the freedoms that the English have pissed away. London might not be lost after all

Has there been a bigger money grab in all of history than clean emissions? These people will never stop with that BS

Years ago, some jerk at a brand new EXXON station in BR failed my brake tag test because of emissions. He stuck a big orange sticker on my windshield. A mechanic at another place said it would be $600 to fix what was wrong. I scraped off the orange sticker and took it to the local gas station in BFE and passed inspection.

1000 of the cameras have been destroyed & 50k people are refusing to pay the fines. The cameras cannot be protected due to not enough police and the courts cannot prosecute that number of people refusing to pay.

Yeah, these guys have been going strong for a bit.

The latest I saw was using a foam to ruin the cameras..

Similar to this..

Yeah, I've seen anecdotes about Brits taking down those cameras pop up from time to time, but didn't know they were sort of organizing and have been as active as they are.

Apparently, the cat and mouse game has escalated with the mayor trying to mount cameras on vans and deploying the vans covertly around the city. In turn, the Blade Runners have taken to covering or breaking the van cameras and even slashing the tires, as well as trying to form proactive networks to warn others where the vans attempt to hide.

Yahoo article about this from today:

A group should start doing this to the banks of cameras in Lafayette, vermillion and other parishes being installed by a private individual for his benefit selling footage to insurance companies and other groups using the info for various reasons. He says it helps fight crime, but completely private entity profiting off images of individuals

Wtf.

Looking past the initial cost, this is both brilliant and frightening.
