More about the book

Exploring the ongoing debate surrounding speed cameras, this book situates the discussion within the framework of 'risk society' as articulated by Beck. It emphasizes that risk is not merely an objective measure but a pervasive element influenced by social contexts. By examining the daily experiences of drivers, the text delves into how perceptions of risk shape attitudes toward road safety interventions, highlighting the complex interplay between societal norms and individual behavior in relation to speed and control on the roads.
