When analysing the data from my questionnaire i will pick out key factors such as most frequent answers to quantitive questions and lowest, summarise on why i think they have been answered in this way and wether or not it follows up with information i have already found though the internet. In my final report i will show my findings in varies different tables counteracting gender and age as well as providing charts and graphs. I won't be able to use graphs and chats when it comes to the more qualitative questions i will need to discuss my finding thoroughly and conclude on the answer to my research question.

I will be collecting all kinds of data from statistic, facts and opinions i could use a questionnaire which will be simple, quick and effective, alternatively i could hold a number of interviews which will be thorough, beneficial yet long winded. I could also choose a online survey similar which has a similar concept to a questionnaire but they can sometimes be tricky to set up and unreliable if systems crash, all my data is gone. Which is the reason i have choose to stick with a simple, quick and effective form of data seeking. A questionnaire. In my questionnaire i will be using quantitive style question short answers is all i require from my peers in order to get as many statistic as i can to conclude my hypothesis. I will not leave the questionnaire at that, there will also be a number of qualitative questions where i will expect detail and reasoning for my peers answers, which will help with my research and allow me to quote valid and invalid statements. The sample of people i will be giving my questionnaire to are my class peers, there is on average 22 of them, i'd like them all to take part in the research with me, there is a range of ages from 17-21, a 70/30 split boys to girls and we all come from different backgrounds and have walked different paths to get were we are now but we are all public service students. I have to rely solely on this questionnaire to get data as there isn't enough time to take it out to the public or even others on the college grounds, so i am relying on my peers to give me honesty in there answers.

Due to people such as Mr Lacey taking the law into there own hands by setting up a fake speed camera late 2018, because he claims to have seen people driving at 90MPH in The 50MPH zone. Mr Lacey taking this into his own hand has worked to an extent, when it first went up he noticed an immediate difference in driver slowing down as they spotted the camera. This article is now plastered over popular news websites and of course social media so the majority of people driving along this particular road on the A1 will now ignore the camera as they know its not real. After reading the article they will also know that the council has stated they will be taking action on fixing the already standing speed camera that has been out of operation. The spokesman from the council has also stated that in the meantime police can use mobile speed enforcement vans. This is a partial factor of my i have chosen the research question 'Do speed cameras prevent road traffic collisions in the UK?'

A man has been asked to take down a fake speed camera he had set up outside his home.

Mike Lacey installed the camera next to the A1 in Beeston, Bedfordshire, claiming he had seen cars hit 90mph in the 50mph area, as reported by The Sun.

Highways England acknowledged his "commitment to safety and his ingenuity" but raised the matter with Central Bedfordshire Council.

Council officers have since spoken to Mr Lacey about his design.

The camera's style is similar to that of those used to enforce average speed limits.

Highways England, which has control over speed cameras, said fake installations could be distracting to drivers and cause crashes.

It added it was "committed to tackling unsafe driving on the A1, including speeding".

A spokesman said: "The speed camera on the northbound A1 is not in operation at the moment, so has been covered over.

"We are designing a replacement system for this section of the A1 replacement, which will encourage better compliance with the speed limit, and in the meantime the police can use mobile speed enforcement vans.

"While we acknowledge Mr Lacey's commitment to safety and his ingenuity, we cannot support the use of dummy cameras like this and have raised the issue with the council."

A Central Bedfordshire Council spokeswoman said: "Given that Mr Lacey is now aware that Highways England are in the process of designing a replacement system for tackling speeding on this section of the A1, we have not issued any formal planning enforcement notice."

My aims are to research deeper into wether or not speed cameras are preventing RTC's caused by speed, also determine wether or not my peers think there are enough speed cameras and if they effect my peers choice of speed. As I'm aware Cleveland, Durham and North Yorkshire had non of their fixed cameras switched on (the are me and my peers live and drive). I would like to look into the speed cameras in the UK how many are running in 2019, not just the statistics i already have from 2017. Do the police need to knuckle down on speed cameras? After all due to budget cuts they are short staffed and by having the cameras switched on this could save them from numerous calls outs to collisions.

Throughout this research task i will be taking advantage of the internet and the vas amount of information and statistics it holds. I will start my research by setting up a questionnaire for my peers in public services, this will give me current facts, data and opinions from the younger generation on my research proposal. This will start me of with some great findings. I can then use this to continue my research on the internet, possibly using reports and books to gain more insight on how my question will end in hypothesis hi or hypothesis ho. Once I have gathered all findings, from my methodology and my research I will in depth analysis piece by piece my findings. Whether or not speed cameras are reducing RTC's or if they are just a waste of government funding. I intend on presenting my finding in a way everyone will understand if ever to read my report, start to finish explaining all details of either side of my research. I aim to reach a fair and true hypothesis.

According to London School of Economics and political science speed cameras reduce road incidents and traffic deaths, there new study states that another 1,00 cameras could save up to 190 live, also reducing 1,130 collisions. Quoting "Given the huge number of fatal accidents that take place on our roads every year, the introduction of more cameras could save hundreds of lives". These studies say that speed cameras can stop RTCs yet in contrast the BBC were told by 36 police forces in the UK that they have a total of 2,838 cameras and just 1,486(52%) are active and catching speeders.
