Whenever the criminal law is discussed, here or elsewhere on the Interweb thingy, it will only be a matter of time before someone brings in the subject of speed cameras, the King Charles' Head** of legal debate. Speeding motorists and recreational drug users seem to be the two groups of habitual lawbreakers who want their activity either legalised at best or ignored by the authorities at worst. Of the two groups it is arguable which causes less harm.
**For those puzzled by this, have a Google for Mr.Dick, in 'David Copperfield'.
