Chapman has apparently now told his kids that speed cameras are dangerous, and they should be prepared for unpredicable driver behaviour around them, and preferably avoid them altogether. This comes after he encouraged his kids to wear helmets, despite pretending to think that helmets make things more dangerous for cyclists. The deceit that comes from Chapman when it comes to important safety matters is absolutely unbelievable.

Of course, we all knew already that Chapman thought cameras were dangerous, and only supported them because he hates motorists (except himself), but this latest development is yet more proof of that, and it just goes to show yet again what a lying piece of shit he really is. He knows helmets make things safer, but claims to think otherwise, because cyclists "shouldn't have any restrictions placed on them since they use a morally form of transport". He knows cameras make things more dangerous, but claims to think otherwise, because "motorists should be given hell since they use an illegitimate form of transport". In both cases, he is quite prepared to advocate things which he knows put road users in more danger, in the absurd belief that it's "worth it" if people are bullied out of their cars and onto their bikes.

No wonder so many people hate him. How anyone could be so callous, and care so little about people needlessly being killed, is completely beyond me.
