What I don't get about these figures, and Teabelly maybe you could help shed some light, is that the total number of vehicle miles stated to be under camera surveillance (1.6 billion) seems to be over 10 times higher than the number of miles driven without surveillance (140.83 million).
This suggests that the non-camera figures only account for about 8% of miles driven.
Now, I may be interpreting those figures incorrectly but how do they determine which vehicle miles are and aren't covered by camera, and what do those 8% of vehicle miles cover? If they aren't comparable to the other 92%, then this is not comparing like for like.
Have I completely misunderstood these figures?
