Speed cameras for tailgaters

The NRMA recently found that rear end collisions were the most common type of crash on the F3 and they believed it this was because too many people are travelling too close to the car in front.

Maybe the RTA should look at a few minor modifications to the programming in the new speed camera so it also detects drivers tailgating.

Have it set so that any vehicle that is travelling with a gap less than three seconds to the car in front gets fined.

It would have the added bonus of reducing the traffic on the F3 as by the end of the first month there would be only be a handful of people left with their licenses.
