Transport Minister Andrew Constance denies the decision to remove mobile speed camera warning signs is a cash grab.

Nationals MP Wes Fang has labelled the decision “an absolute disgrace” that unfairly targets motorists in regional areas.

Mr Constance told Ray Hadley research indicated 43 lives each year could be saved by this move.

“I am just heartbroken that he would [say] that.

“I’m sorry, I’m gonna do the right thing. I’m not gonna sit on that type of evidence and turn a blind eye and go ‘oh this is too hard politically cause Mr Fang from Wagga’s upset.'”
