It should be these people who are targeted

I fear you would be embarrased in court, if your superiors allowed you to proceed with it.

Yep, don't use blinkers, talk on mobile phone etc - but as long as they are not speeding they are driving safely.

I think it is inevitable that many people focus on speed instead of other safe driving practices, we are taught that it is the cause of accidents so that the government can justify more cameras

Speed cameras mean more to the government than mere safety devices
