Summary
A road safety camera van in Co Tyrone was viciously attacked by a driver who hurled masonry at it, shattered its windows, and even taunted the officer inside before fleeing—though the officer was unharmed. These vans, deployed in high-risk zones to catch speeders and prevent deadly crashes, are now out of commission while police hunt the assailant. Chief Inspector Trevor Campbell emphasized that speeding isn’t just reckless—it’s a deadly crime that endangers everyone. The message is clear: slowing down saves lives, and attacking those who enforce safety is unacceptable. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
